Formula 1 Heineken Chinese Grand Prix 2019 – Practice
By Sports

At the Formula 1 Heineken Chinese Grand Prix 2019, Lewis Hamilton finished FP2 in 4th which was seven tenths off Bottas’s leading pace.

Hamilton said, “I’m just focusing on trying to figure out what the hell is going on with my car. I was struggling with the car today, so we’ve got work to do, particularly on my side as Valtteri looked much more comfortable in the car. We’re going to work hard tonight to find some tweaks and hopefully come back stronger tomorrow; the car has the pace in it to compete at the front, we just need to find the right set-up.”
