The regulation changes in 2022 have brought along their own set of problems. The biggest, being the phenomenon of porpoising, which makes the cars violently bounce at high speeds. This has led to a lot of drivers complaining about severe back pain and body pain. The last race in Baku was especially painful for Mercedes driver Lewis Hamilton.

Lewis Hamilton was one of the worst affected drivers by the porpoising issue in Baku. The Mercedes team had pushed their setup a tad bit too far in search of performance. This led to a painful outing for both Hamilton and Russell. Hamilton even described the race as the “worst race ever”.
