LEWIS HAMILTON is set for a timely boost in his F1 title battle with Max Verstappen next out in Saudi Arabia. “We’ll get our spicy engine out for Saudi Arabia that we didn’t use [in Qatar].”. He has managed to slash Verstappen’s lead from 19 to eight points in the last two races. He added: “[We’ve] definitely been able to squeeze more performance out of the package without bringing any upgrades. “In these last two [races], I think we’ve just been able to do a better job overall. Meanwhile, organisers in Saudi are confident the track will be finished in time for the race on December 5th and are without any major concerns.
