Lewis needs to find his winning mojo as soon as possible
The 7-time world champion has not a won race since Monaco, giving the window Verstappen needed to claim first place in the driver standings. Now he prepares himself for round two in Austria, where last weekend he was dominated by the Red Bull prodigy.
Hamilton knows he has to find the edge over his arch-rival, to have a shot back at regaining his spot in the title race. For now, he is focused on getting the most out of the practice session scheduled for today.
More importantly, the Knight knows he needs to extract the most out of the W12 and give a much-needed win to this Brackley-based team, as they too are fighting against Red Bull in the Constructors’ Championship.
