Lewis Hamilton News: Mercedes Star Makes 'Incredible' Ferrari Admission

British Legend Admits Ferrari's Superiority

Hamilton Praises Ferrari's 'Incredible' Pace

Lewis Hamilton, the seven-time Formula 1 World Champion, has made a surprising admission ahead of the upcoming British Grand Prix. In an interview with Sky Sports, Hamilton acknowledged that Ferrari is currently the superior team.

"They've got an incredible car at the moment," Hamilton said. "They're just so quick on the straights, and they're very strong in the corners as well. We've got a lot of work to do to catch up."

Hamilton's comments come as no surprise to many F1 fans. Ferrari has been the dominant team in the 2023 season, winning four of the first nine races. Charles Leclerc, Ferrari's lead driver, has been in particularly impressive form, winning three races and leading the Drivers' Championship by 34 points.

Mercedes, on the other hand, has struggled to keep pace with Ferrari. The team has yet to win a race in 2023 and has been plagued by reliability issues. Hamilton is currently fifth in the Drivers' Championship, 98 points behind Leclerc.

Despite Mercedes' struggles, Hamilton remains optimistic about the team's chances of turning things around. "We've got a great team, and we're working hard to improve the car," he said. "I'm confident that we can close the gap to Ferrari and be competitive again soon."

The British Grand Prix will take place on July 3 at Silverstone Circuit. It will be the 10th race of the 2023 Formula 1 season.
