Lewis Hamilton is pushing for a basic change to his seating position as he struggles to keep up with his much younger Mercedes teammate George Russell. “I’ve got some amazing allies at the team,” Hamilton insists. For Hamilton, it’s a different story – and Hamilton is apparently arguing behind closed doors that he would like his cockpit position pushed back as soon as possible. “But with the cockpit position advanced and the aerodynamic balance pushed forward, my perception of how the rear reacts has changed,” Hamilton is quoted by Auto Motor und Sport. “A part of me makes me confident that we are making a good step forward with the new concept,” Hamilton said.
