Hamilton making a lot of excuses - Dutchman feels Lewis Hamilton is preoccupied with other nonsense than with real racing

Lewis Hamilton's off-track focus is costing him against George Russell Former driver Tim Coronel believes Lewis Hamilton and Mercedes do not have the synergy right now. The Dutchman feels that the Briton has been making far too many excuses this season instead of focussing on the task at hand. He told : “Mercedes and Hamilton are not on a good vibe. As a driver, in a warm environment, you express yourself well, and then you can be creative and keep going. Hamilton and Mercedes are definitely not in that at the moment. I see Hamilton making a lot of excuses.” "Then you go to the wrong momentum and you see that happening with Hamilton now. He’s looking for excuses.”

Lewis Hamilton is too preoccupied with his piercings Tim Coronel

Thanks for all the support, Miami. See you tomorrowThanks for all the support, Miami. See you tomorrow Lewis Hamilton has been busy being at odds with the FIA regarding their clampdown on jewelry worn while racing. Meanwhile, George Russell has not lost to Hamilton in the last four races. Tim Coronel compared Hamilton's angry quip over his pit strategy during the safety car period in Miami to Russell's decision to take the initiative with regards to the same. He said: “Russell takes chances because he feels pretty good. He creates that. We used to see that with [Michael] Schumacher, who really thought along with the team. Now Hamilton puts the ball to the team, but as a driver you also have to think. Hamilton is too preoccupied with his piercings, gems and other nonsense than with real racing.” Thanks for having us, Miami. See you next year. Thanks for having us, Miami. See you next year. Coronel also praised Russell, stating that the British driver comes from the same class of drivers as Lando Norris, , and Max Verstappen. He said: “He comes from the same line as Norris, Max and Leclerc, let’s face it. It is a group that have known each other from an early age and who have always fought each other. It’s about how do you develop during that year. Russell has had to drive a chicken coop of a car for the past few years [at Williams], let’s get that straight. He had to learn to adapt to the car and get the most out of it. And he does.” How fares in the coming few races will be crucial. The driver is not doing himself any favors by consistently focusing on matters unrelated to the championship. Poll : 0 votes Quick Links More from Sportskeeda Thank You!
