Mercedes driver Lewis Hamilton has said that the tarmac run-off areas make finding reference points at the track challenging. However, he was satisfied with his Friday practice after topping both sessions. The defending world champion will start the French Grand Prix with an updated Mercedes [https://www.formula1.com/en/latest/headlines/2018/6/mercedes-reveals-france-engine-update.html] power unit. Unfortunately, he was unable to utilise its optimum performance, but he still secured top spot in both sessions. Hamilton was reluctant to compare his pace to his rivals, fearing sandbagging by Ferrari [https://www.essentiallysports.com/former-ferrari-president-rivals-not-competitive/]. But he enjoyed getting up to speed at a new circuit for 2018. The French GP has returned to F1 after a 10-year absence at Paul Ricard which last hosted the sport back in 1990. “It is always a challenge coming to a new circuit and the place is beautiful, really stunning down here,” Hamilton said. “With the track you are constantly learning new things so I love the challenge of trying to get into the swing of it before everyone else. There is a lot of different lines you can take as well. Friday is ticked off and now we need to carry this on for the rest of the weekend. Lewis Hamilton [http://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Chinese-Grand-Prix-2018-FP2-fastest-driver-Lewis-Hamilton-945474-300x178.jpg]Lewis Hamilton “I miss the grass, there is no grass anywhere. Apart from the colourful lines it is difficult to tell where the hell you are most of the time which is the part that I dislike. “There are a couple of places down the back straight and you are coming down the long straight trying to find out where the corner is. There is one junction that turns off, that is not it, then there is another junction which turns off on the right, that’s not it, then another on the left. “It is really, really hard to see. It messes with your mind a couple of times but you get used it to it.” Hamilton is looking to take back the lead in the F1 world drivers’ championship after falling behind Ferrari’s Sebastian Vettel [https://www.crash.net/f1/racer/21/sebastian-vettel] by one point last time out at the Canadian Grand Prix. 

Mercedes driver Lewis Hamilton has openly admitted that he is not a big fan of
the Circuit Paul Ricard, and labelled it 'confusing'

<h2>Mercedes: 2021 Latest News, Results, Drivers, and Car Updates</h2>
German manufacturing giant, Mercedes-Benz, first got involved in racing back in the 1930s and 1940s. After the Second World War, they returned in 1954, in what is now known as Formula One. However, they pulled out as a manufacturer after 1955, remaining only as a supplier.

The team are commonly referred to as the 'Silver Arrows' due to its distinct and iconic silver livery.

Their exit was a direct response to the 1955 Le Mans Disaster. They would be coaxed back as a constructor, only from 2010 onwards.

Those wins came at the French Grand Prix, the German Grand Prix, the Swiss Grand Prix, and the Spanish Grand Prix.

A year later, they would go on to win five out of seven races. These wins came at Argentina, Belgium, Netherlands, Great Britain, and Italy.

After their return in 2010, there were off to a shaky start, having been away for so long. However, since 2013, things have been picking up, and they began to dominate from 2014, which saw the inception of the turbo-hybrid era in Formula 1.

Mercedes have won every single Drivers' and Constructors' Championship on offer since 2014. The team have won 115 races out of 227 races.
