168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton has lamented his Mercedes F1 car for having “spikes” of promise that “disappear” in echoes of previous struggles in recen🍬t seasons.

The seven-time world champion could only qualify 11th at the Australian Grand Prix as teammate 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:George Russell took seventh to out-pace Hamilton for the third successi𝕴ve race this year.

Hamilton, who got within 0.1 seconds of 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Charles Leclerc’s pace-se♛tting Ferrari in final practice, admitted to feeling “flat” after his worst qualifying in Melbourne since 2010.

"Every outing you learn something new," Hamilton said. "FP3 felt really good for us, and I felt really op𒐪timistic going into qualifying but then, I don't know if it's the wind picking up, the wind picked up quite a bit, same as yesterday, and then the car is just so much more on a knife edge.

"It's three years in a row a similar feeling. But then there's these spikes of '🅠Oh, it could be good' like this morning. And then it kind of disappears.

"If we can work a way of finding that goodness in the car and making it more consistent and holding onto that, maybe we can be more competitive. But there's a lot of work we need to do but everyone's working as hard 🐷as they can.”

Hamilton ꦚadmitted the inconܫsistencies in the W15 “really messes with the mind". 

With Mercedes seemingly still struggling to understand the airflow under the car in the current ground-effect regulations, Hamilton is once again conducting set-up exp꧋eriments in a bid to unlock more performance.

"In 2022, we weren't splitting [set-ups]," Hamilton explained. "George was doing one thing. I w🦹as trying every set-up there was to try and help the team find options and figure out how we could fix it.

"It's pretty much thไe same, a little bit similar to this year. I've tried lots of different things. But I think this weekend we're much closer."
