Gamilton wants to be born in the British Grand Prix
- Hamilton wants to be born before the British Grand Prix in Silverstone, having previously sent a sincere message to Ferrari team.
- The material also notes that technical changes in the car will be introduced before the race in order to be able to compete with Mercedes.
- Damon Hill believes that British drivers at the Silverstone will have a strong lead through the fans’ expectations; predicting 565,000 fans.
Lewis Hamilton has talked about his readiness ahead of the British Grand Prix, saying that he is confident in the team’s preparations in advance, and that the team’s strong start in the season is due to the engine in the Ferrari. The material also says that British driver may have deviate from the plan in 2007 due to the change in the car’s engine.
However, it is not clear which Hamilton described as such, why he did so at the start of the season, and how the new car’s design could change the overall performance of Ferrari after 12 years in Mercedes. According to the material, first victory Scuderia at the Barcelona-Catalunya GP was a message of hope for the team in that context.
The material from The Guardian also says that Hamilton believes progress is possible through the development of the car, which was confirmed by the team’s strong performance. The material also notes that the British driver’s explanation is based on the fact that the team’s expectations were not met, and that the team’s plans are still effective.
However, the reason for the technical changes is that the team is trying to solve the problem: the British driver believes that the car’s front wing is not working properly, and that the team is trying to fix it with new brake discs from Brembo and Carbone Industrie. The material also says that Hamilton’s problems are related to an internal issue with Carlo Santi.
Meanwhile, in an interview with the material, Damon Hill, commenting that British drivers at the Silverstone will compete with a clear advantage over their opponents, said that the material’s forecast is 565,000 fans who will come to the British Grand Prix this weekend.
The Independent also states that, according to the start of the season, Silverstone’s best drivers for 30 years are George Russell. Hill, who follows Williams, says that the British driver believes that he will be able to improve his performance through the experience of the team.
Hill added that the Silverstone event is expected to be among the most important races, but that it is still unclear whether the 2026 cars will be characterized by the same electric engines, with the electric energy, which will be used in the future. The material points out that the new regulations—combining electric and internal combustion engines—will be a key change in the coming years.
According to The Independent, the discussion is about whether the new regulations could be a challenge for those who are not ready, and that it is also possible that the race will be won by Max Verstappen, who may be able to win the race again this season. Hill also says that he believes the tactics that he thinks may help him win are still effective.
