Lewis Hamilton was left utterly speechless after facing an extremely disappointing end to the penultimate race with Mercedes.
Lewis Hamilton‘s streak of woeful 2024 performances continued at the Qatar GP as well. This was no surprise as Hamilton suffered yet another disappointing end to a race. The Briton was caught in an incident where he wasn’t even at fault. As a result, the 39-year-old was utterly speechless in an interview by the end of the weekend.
The debris on the track caused punctures in Lewis Hamilton and Carlos Sainz‘s chassis as they had to immediately pit. Moreover, the Briton dwindled desperately below the pecking order and couldn’t contend for a points finish. Hence, the 39-year-old claimed he had nothing to say when asked about his feelings post-race. Hamilton didn’t want to ‘revisit’ the emotions that he faced during the race.
There’s nothing really [to say], I don’t really want to revisit [those emotions].
Lewis Hamilton said in a post-session interview
Despite all the massive disappointments, Hamilton refused to give up on improving performance in the season finale. The Briton was still standing strong and ready to get back up in the upcoming final race weekend.
The race, I mean, I’m still standing. It’s not how you fall it’s how you get back up, so I’ll get back up tomorrow and give it another shot next week.
Lewis Hamilton added
