Hamilton defeated Ferrari team partner Charles Lakeler For the second consecutive round by taking the fifth position in Q3 – But some 0.627s away from pole position Claimed by Mercedes, George Russell,
The seven-time F1 World Champion felt a clean run through making his allegation worthy despite feeling under pressure to make Q3.
He told reporters on Saturday, “We have progressed to come into it, so it was a positive.” “Not more often … (in previous qualification sessions) something wrong with the car.
“As the floor is not working, or the rear wing has stopped working. Always something that means we were downforce or down on something.
“On one side of history, I have given very good time here, it is a great circuit. So much can be. So, I am open -minded. The fundamental base of our car is not as good as there are people today, it is far away. But I still hope that our race speed can be good. Podium is still a target.”

In Canada, a seven -time winner Hamilton reported that the small step came from a change in his driving style.
He said, “I made some changes how I went,” he said. “This car is very different from me before. You go to low -speed corners and you are waiting and waiting. It doesn’t want to turn. It is definitely not suitable for this circuit.”
He said: “This is just an old step. We have no upgrade or anything. It is the same car for some time. With the same package at the end of each week.
“I am constantly struggling with engineers, asking them questions. We work on trying (different). A little bit, we are progressing.
“But finally, we need a upgradation to be able to fight people from the front.”
