It was an all-encompassing cry of frustration from Lewis Hamilton’s cockpit. ‘There is performance to be gained in all areas and we need it now, not in two or three races. Russell also started well, gaining a place from sixth on the grid. Russell has now beaten Hamilton twice in the three races this season, and if there was a slice of fortune yesterday that was not the case a fortnight ago in Saudi Arabia. He has been so solid these first three races and he is really grafting away. I am hoping we can get in the fight, but with every bit of improvement we make so will Red Bull and Ferrari improve.
