“I don’t know what you expect from me sometimes” – Lewis Hamilton fumes at race engineer as he continues to underperform

The worst nightmare of Lewis Hamilton continues as the W13 persists with the porpoising issue in Azerbaijan Grand Prix.

Lewis Hamilton continues to fight with his Mercedes W13 as the car shows no sign of improvement during the Azerbaijan Grand Prix.

The 2021 constructors’ champions showed signs of improvement during the Spanish Grand Prix with their car upgrades. Hamilton finished fifth while teammate George Russell finished on the podium.

However, Monaco Grand Prix brought Mercedes’ old nightmares back with the car jumping terribly giving Hamilton backache.

The German team brought essential upgrades to the Azerbaijan Grand Prix, however, it looks like the rebound is back in full force.
