The car is clearly going to be a fair bit slower. Hamilton is just faster and making the difference.
Lewis finished p4, challenged Charles during the first stint despite a bargeboard missing and despite them not adjusting his wing during the pit stop that stopped him from being able to turn the car at the beginning of the second stint
finished 15s behind. Leclerc had much better pace again, just like in Silverstone. Lewis was lucky Max was holding Charles on the beginning. With clean air, Hamilton just fell behind. Idk if Hamilton had significant damage from the crash in which he destroyed Russell´s race but Leclerc also crashed into Piastri (should have been punished as well and both with more than 5s but FIA wants Ferrari in the championship...) and could have carried damage from that as well
Lewis challenged Charles during the first stint and was the fastest car on track during the second stint at one point, all with a bargeboard missing. People coming in the thread ever week no matter the result just to --- on a driver is so annoyingArtur Craft wrote: ↑19 Jul 2026, 16:46finished 15s behind.

Another tough weekend for Hamilton. He desperately needs to bounce back on the next GP which is one of his best tracks, otherwise it will get ominous for him
I agree 100%. It is very annoying, this was a proper forum once.
