As the Japanese GP comes to an end there is an overwhelming feeling taking over Lewis Hamilton. The overwhelming feeling of not being able to fight for his ultimate goal one more time, at least not with Mercedes. The Brit, for almost more than a year, complained about bringing substantial changes to the troubled challenger. Even after Toto Wolff and Co. gave in and resigned the car, there were still areas in which the car was lacking.

Even after several weeks, this scenario has remained the same whereas other teams have leapfrogged Mercedes in terms of race pace. The Japanese GP highlighted this scenario which made Hamilton make a gloomy admission and put the LH army on Toto Wolff and Co’s tail.

Hamilton, despite his best efforts, could only manage to finish which could’ve been worse if there were more laps remaining in the race. Mercedes was just not up to the task in Japan despite Suzuka being a favorable track for the Brackley outfit. So speaking after the race, Lewis made a gloomy admission as revealed by Twiter (now X) user @fiagirly.
