In the meantime, even Roger Federer could not bring luck to the Mercedes team, as they didn’t get the pole position in today’s qualifying. After the free practice 2, they looked one of the faster cars on the grid. However, in the qualifying, they again lost the Ferrari and Red Bull team. 7-time F1 world champion, Lewis Hamilton, finished 6th and his partner George Russell finished ahead of him in the fourth position. 

Federer has been training hard for his comeback 

Although Federer is traveling a lot recently, he is also working hard on his return. Recently, Federer posted on his Instagram a few pictures of his indoor training. In the caption he wrote, “And we keep going.”

Earlier, the 20-time Grand Slam winner announced his return at the Laver Cup, which will probably be his first tournament after the knee surgery. Also, we will get to see Nadal and Federer play again together after a long time. After the Laver Cup, he will play the tournament in Basel, which he won 10 times previously.
