Lewis Hamilton’s Mercedes complaint analysed at F1 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix
"Balance" and "weight ☂transfer issues" mentioned as experts assess Lewis Hamilton🔯's struggles

The problems that 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton experienced in qualifying for the F1 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix have been debated.
The Mercedes driver mentioned “intense bouncing” - a horrible reminder of the k🥂ey issue which has blighted the cars from the past tw♉o F1 seasons.
But other details have been noted after Hamilton battled to a P8 starting grid position in qualifyꦿing.
“This weekend,⛦ particularly Lewis has com𒀰plained about the balance of the car,” Naomi Schiff said on Sky Sports.
“What he wa🀅s referring to was possibly a bit of weight transfer issues.
“Anti-dive is somethingܫ that can into effect on a track like this, where you limit the amount of roll from the front to the rear, so your weight distribution is even.
“That way, when you💯 dive into the corner, it doesn’t🧔 make the rear light.
“Which seems to be what he’s complaining about here. The others - the Red Bull - jus🍎t seems to not be rolling from front to rear.”
Bernie Collins🐻 described the Mercedes W15 in Saudi Arabia: “A quick car in a straight lꦉine and they are confident in their race pace.
“But unfoꦍrtunately, on this track, it is difficult to overtake.
“So what can they do? Can they do something strategically? It’s going to be on a knife-edge - waiting for a Sa🦋fety Car or jumping early, waiting f💧or an undercut.
“It’s going to be a real cat and mouse game.”
Hamilton will beginℱ behind both Red Bull𒈔s, both McLarens, Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc, Aston Martin’s Fernando Alonso and Mercedes teammate George Russell.
Hamilton was asked what is causing the bouncing that he exp🦩eriences in the W15.
He replied: “We've tried every set-up change. We can't gಌet rid of it. It's difficult to explain it.
"We had some bouncing in Bahrain but nowhere near as intense a𒁏s here.
"That first sector is super high-speed with a lot of🌄 yaw in the car and a lot of lateral load and the bouncing really offsets the ca💦r quite a bit.
"If you imagine when the c💙🔯ar goes up and down at the back, your balance shifts forwards and rearwards.
"If you are d༺oing that at 160 or 170mpm, correcting that each time...the others like Max are flat through six, seven and eight&nbꦚsp; and the balance is just stable. That's what we are working towards.
"We've got to fix it. Iꦬt's three years in a row. We've got to get on top of it."
