168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton has lamented his Mercedes F1 car for having “spikes” of pro♑mise that “disappear” in echoes of previous struggles in recent seasons.

The seven-time world champion could only qualify 11th at the Australian Grand Prix as teammate 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:George Russell took seventh to out-pace Hamilton for the thi𒁏rd successive race this y♑ear.

Hamilton, who got within 0.1 seconds of 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Charles Leclerc’s pace༒-setting Ferrari in final practice, admitted to feeling “f💧lat” after his worst qualifying in Melbourne since 2010.

"Every outing you learn something new," Hamilton said. "FP3 felt really good for us, and I felt really optimistic going into qualifying but then, I don't know if it's the wind picking up, the wind picked up quite a bit, same as yesterday, and 💧then the car is just so much more on a knife edge.

"It's three years in a row a similar feeling. But then there's these spikes of 'Oh, it could be good' like this ꦺmorning. And then it kind of disappears.

"If we can work a way of finding that goodness in the car and making it more consistent and holding onto that, maybe we can be more competitive. But there's a lot of work we ne꧙ed to do but everyone's working as hard as they ൲can.”

Hamilton admitted the inconsistencies in the W15 “really messes with th✅e mind". 

With Mercedes seemingly still struggling to understand the airflow under the car in the current ground-effect regulations, Hamilton is once again conducting set-up experiments in a bid to unlock more p🔴erformance.

"In 2022, we weren't sp🀅litting [set-ups]," Hamilton explained. "George was doing one thing. I was trying every set-up there was to try and help the team find options and figure out how we could fix i🌳t.

"It's pretty much the same, a little bit similar to this year. I've tried lots of different things. But I thiꦐnk this weekend we're much closer."
