Recall how Lewis Hamilton and Co. dominated the whole turbo hybrid era after the regulations overhaul for the 2014 season. Unfortunately, they weren’t able to achieve the same and Red Bull has come out on top after last year’s regulation overhaul that introduced the ground effect. Now, Lewis Hamilton has undertaken a mission along with Mercedes’ masterminds to get back to winning ways just days after renewing the $127,000,000 contract. What is the Briton’s plan?

Lewis Hamilton bashed his team for not listening to his advice regarding the problem of the W14 concept. Many months down the line, despite multiple upgrades, Hamilton still isn’t happy with the car. The biggest complaint is the seating position inside the W14. However, the seven-time champion has a plan to rectify these errors for the upcoming season as he elaborates on the same.

Lewis Hamilton explained how over the past couple of years, during the tough times, the communication within the team has improved massively. People are owning up to their mistakes and are prompted to rectify them so that the team can move forward. The Mercedes man then explains how he’ll go through a list with race engineer Peter Bonninton and trackside engineering director Andrew Shovlin. The three will discuss and figure out what worked for them and what didn’t.

According to Racefans.net, Lewis Hamilton said, “At the end of the year we’ll – Bono and I, and Shov – we’ll go through a list of things that worked and which didn’t work and just be honest. Like: ‘we keep doing this, this does not benefit my weekend at all’. Take that off and it gives you more time to focus on other areas or you add more things in which can benefit the team as a whole.”

Lewis Hamilton seems to be super serious about the massive task of taking Mercedes back to the top. Hamilton’s new $127 million advises that the Brit will stay with the team for at least 2 more years. It’s now up to the seven-time champ to push the team. He even made comments about shifting the focus to 2024.

Frustration can most definitely be heard in Lewis Hamilton’s statement and comments. The 7X champ hasn’t won a race in over a year and a half. And it’s not really his fault. Mercedes just hasn’t been able to provide a competitive car. The Brit made comments advising that all his focus is on the upcoming year with the result of the current year doesn’t matter to him.

According to Marca.com, Lewis Hamilton told Channel 4, “I really don’t care what position I finish in this year. I’m just focused on just trying to give the best development information for the team, working with the guys to make sure we steer this car in the right way and when we start the first race or the first test next year we hit the ground running.”

Will Lewis Hamilton and the engineers be able to show up with a competitive car next year?
