A Difficult Start With Ferrari\u00a0<\/p>\n
Hamilton endured a season of mixed results during his first year Ferrari, failing to score a single podium throughout – a first in Hamilton’s career.<\/p>\n
Despite the struggles Hamilton has more recently been sending out more positive signals that Ferrari have delivered a competitive package this year as the sport enters one of the most radical new set regulations the sport has ever seen.<\/p>\n
Following private testing in Barcelona last week Hamilton said believes Ferrari have had a better start to F1 pre-season testing than last year.<\/p>\n
“When you come to the test, you always want to get a lot of mileage,” Hamilton said.<\/p>\n
“Today, I did 85 laps in the morning, which is amazing. That’s really down to all the people in the factory who have done such a great job to make sure that the car, so far, is really reliable.<\/p>\n
“Last year we had a worse start to testing. So, considering this is a completely new band of rules, it’s better than we’ve experienced in the past, so I’m really hopeful that continues.”
