Lewis Hamilton shares insights on Ferrari's new suspension upgrades after Belgian Grand Prix Sprint

Lewis Hamilton has given his verdict on the latest suspension upgrade Ferrari revealed in Belgium. The upgrade was expected to create the SF-25 a little more competitive, but it was not the case during the sprint qualifying and the Sprint race.

Hamilton began the race in P18 after an incident in qualifying. Although he was able to perform a few overtakes, most of the cars ahead of him were slower. But he believes that he could not gain more places because of the DRS train they were all stuck in.

"We were all in the DRS train, which was unfortunate, but I’ve definitely learned a lot about the upgrades that we have," Lewis Hamilton told the media.

While talking about the upgrade, he mentioned that Charles Leclerc had a part of the same since Montreal. he also said that they were fine tuning the issue because Friday was the first time they had a proper chance at running it.

"I was just reflecting, part of the upgrade Charles has had since Montreal and you saw the crash that he had there and it was similar to something that I had yesterday."

"So it’s just about fine tuning it. Yesterday was the first time running it for me and I think now’s it’s just about fine tuning it, we can make some changes between now and quali," he added.

There are mixed reviews about the upgrades. The new suspension came with so many expectations, but it failed to make any impact for both Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc against their competitors.

McLaren continues to dominate

McLaren has dominated the entire grid this season. They have been dominating from the start and currently leading both the Drivers' and the Constructor's World Championships. Slower than usual Red Bull's Max Verstappen has been able to outperform both Ferraris constantly.

In a conversation, Hamilton's teammate Charles Lecleerc, said that they are extracting the maximum output from the car, but there is no way to battle with the McLarens and Red Bull.

"For sure there’s some learning to take away from a race like this, however, it doesn’t feel like we are very off the maximum potential of the car," he told Sky Sports. "I don’t feel like we are out of place with the set-up or anything like that."

"I don’t think there is anything in the car that makes us hope we can fight with Red Bull or McLaren, unfortunately," he added.

Charles Leclerc began the sprint in P4 and was able to overtake Lando Norris. However, the latter managed to fight it back and create a huge distance on the Ferrari, leaving to drive alone most of the race.
