Lewis Hamilton<\/a> got candid about his feelings for the Scuderia Ferrari<\/a> outfit following the Singapore Grand Prix. The British driver admitted to feeling pain for the team after the race at the Marina Bay Circuit.\u201cI feel pain for the whole team.\u201d- Lewis Hamilton\u00a0<\/p>\n

Hamilton, who spoke to the media following his outing at the Singapore Grand Prix, admitted to feeling for the entire team amid the hard work they continue to put in. The seven-time world champion, however, admitted that the car is not on the same level as the front-runners.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe guys are pushing so hard each weekend. I feel pain for the whole team \u2013 from catering to marketing, to the guys in the garage and the engineers who show up every weekend and really do give absolutely everything,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut the car we have is just not at the level of the guys up ahead of us, particularly as they\u2019ve had some upgrades, and we can\u2019t match them. So we\u2019re on a knife-edge trying to get as close as we can,\u201d Hamilton concluded.<\/p>\n

Hamilton: \u2018There was potential to be further ahead\u2019<\/p>\n

Hamilton also detailed how he could have extracted more performance from the SF-25 at the Singapore Grand Prix. The 40-year-old pointed to his execution in qualifying, noting that a stronger session could have translated into an overall positive result.<\/p>\n

He said, \u201cThere was potential for us to be further ahead this weekend. In qualifying, I\u2019m not extracting the full potential of the car \u2013 both in the last race and this weekend.\u201d<\/p>\n

“I think there was potential to have been third or fourth on the grid this weekend if we had perfected and extracted the tyre performance, and not queued at the end of the pit lane, for example.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the race, I don\u2019t think we\u2019re necessarily\u2026 We\u2019re kind of on par, pace-wise, with at least a couple of cars ahead of us, but obviously not quicker. If we can get our qualifying fixed, which is very hard to do against these quick cars,\u00a0 then maybe we can get slightly better results,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n

Hamilton endured a challenging outing at the Singapore Grand Prix. The British driver failed to improve on his sixth-place starting position, having been forced to nurse brake issues and several other problems during the race. He was also handed a five-second penalty, which dropped him to eighth place <\/a>following a track limits violation.GPblog paddock updateStay up to date with the action from the F1<\/a> circle, never miss a moment with our paddoc update.
