Lewis Hamilton cut a frustrated figure after Qualifying for the Sao Paulo Grand Prix, with the Ferrari driver falling at the Q2 hurdle.<\/p>\n
Hamilton entered the main Qualifying session of the weekend following an encouraging Sprint display, which involved him climbing from 11th on the grid to seventh to bag a couple of points.<\/p>\n
However, he followed up his SQ2 elimination with a Q2 exit in Saturday\u2019s grid-decider, leaving him at a loss for words when he spoke to the world\u2019s media.<\/p>\n
\u201cI didn\u2019t have any rear end,\u201d he lamented. \u201cThe tyres weren\u2019t working today.\u201d<\/p>\n
Pushed on whether any changes were made to his SF-25 after the Sprint, Hamilton added: \u201cThe car set-up felt good, it was just how we prepared the tyres.\u201d<\/p>\n
While team mate Charles Leclerc went on to qualify third and has his eyes on a podium finish in Sunday\u2019s race, Hamilton is braced for a tough afternoon.<\/p>\n
\u201cI can\u2019t do anything from there,\u201d he sighed.<\/p>\n
Nonetheless, Ferrari will be looking for as many points as possible at Interlagos as they try to keep the pressure on Mercedes for P2 in the Teams\u2019 Championship<\/a>.<\/p>\n
