I m not convinced - Lewis Hamilton still experiences porpoising despite FIA s new changes

Seventh placed qualifier Lewis Hamilton of Great Britain and Mercedes talks to the media in the Paddock after qualifying ahead of the F1 Grand Prix of Azerbaijan at Baku City Circuit on June 11, 2022 in Baku, Azerbaijan. (Photo by Dan Mullan/Getty Images) driver Lewis Hamilton has claimed that the W13 still bounces down the straights. The driver admitted that though the porpoising is not heavy, he wishes for the problem to improve in 2023. While speaking in a post-qualifying interview, maintained that he is not convinced that 'porpoising' will go away completely next year: "I still feel bouncing and the car is still bouncing down the straights. It's not as hardcore as it was at the beginning of the year. I think we've done an amazing job to fix it. I'm not convinced the changes for next year will change it but I've not driven the new updated floor for it. But yeah, we'll see, I guess in the following races." Check this out the porpoising, Jordan. Anyone calling Lewis Hamilton out for complaining or play acting don’t know anything. Had to do this for 2 hours. Check this out the porpoising, Jordan. Anyone calling Lewis Hamilton out for complaining or play acting don’t know anything. Had to do this for 2 hours. Hamilton, in fact, completely contradicted his Mercedes teammate 's experience. The 24-year-old claimed that he had forgotten what the bouncing felt like: "I think it almost has disappeared. I think the couple of small rule changes that were implemented by the FIA definitely helped and the changes into next year by raising the floor edge, we're almost 100% sure that will take porpoising out of the equation totally. It's funny, there was once a time that I forgot what a race car felt like not to have porpoising and now to be honest, I forgot what it does feel like to have porpoising. " The 'porpoising' arguably affected Lewis Hamilton the most this year. The driver cried in pain during his race in Baku and took several minutes to come out of the car after withstanding major jerks.
