Why Hamilton could win the 2023 Dutch GP
The Formula One legend finished second in the 2021 Dutch Grand Prix before finishing fourth in last season's race.
Hamilton, who was the runner-up at the 2023 Australian Grand Prix, will be eager to record his maiden of the campaign at the Circuit Zandvoort.
What did he say?
“I think it was kind of a non-eventful race, there wasn’t much really going on, I wasn’t able to keep up with the cars ahead of me,” Hamilton said after the 2023 Belgian Grand Prix.
“I struggled at the beginning, rear end is our biggest issue. Then we had big bouncing this weekend, so we are back to the bouncing like we had last year.
“They [Mercedes] don’t know [what caused the bouncing] and to me it is a concern, but we will work through the data this week and try to figure out what we do before the next race,” he added.
“But I don’t really have much more answers for you. I know what I want and I am praying for it, I am just waiting for the day that we get it.”
