Hamilton drives Silverstone crazy After the difficulties in Austria one could have expected a Ferrari in difficulty at Silverstone, but instead today in Sprint Qualifying Lewis Hamilton took pole position, beating Andrea Kimi Antonelli by 11 thousandths. The seven-time world champion feared on the eve of paying even more on the straight than his rivals compared to what happened at the Red Bull Ring, and instead the third sector became a hunting ground for the SF-26 rather than paying duty. “Yesterday they almost scared me – said Hamilton – they told me that I would lose six tenths on the straight compared to the others. In the previous race we were four tenths slower on the straight, but today, suddenly, we are practically at the same level. I wondered if it was true or if they would have increased the power for qualifying, but in the end we were there fighting with Mercedes”. In the telemetric analysis of our Federico Albano you will find all the strokes of genius concocted by the Ferrari technicians to make the most of the potential of the SF-26 on the Silverstone track.
