Lewis Hamilton’s regular race engineer Peter Bonnington has returned to the Mercedes Formula 1 team at the United States Grand Prix, one race earlier than expected.
Bonnington missed the Mexico race for a personal medical procedure at home in the United Kingdom, although Hamilton said he assisted the team from its base and had even been in discussion over set-up advice through the weekend.
Originally, Bonnington had been expected to miss this weekend’s race at Austin as well and then return for the Brazilian Grand Prix in two weeks’ time.
Bonnington was replaced in Mexico by Marcus Dudley, Hamilton’s usual performance engineer.
