168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton was downbeat after his latest F1 qualifying defeat at the Monaco Grand Prix to 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:George Russell, claiming💮 he d🐽oesn’t expect to beat his Mercedes teammate again this year.

After showing great pace through practice, Hamilton’s performance fell away in the dying mom☂ents of Q3.

Hamilton was beaten yet again by Russell, meaning the younger British driver🧔 leads 7-1 in the qualifying head-to-head.

The seven-time world champion is on a poor run of form, particularly on Saturdays, and is on course to ♈be🌸 out-qualified by a teammate for the first time since 2014.

Reflecting on qualifying, Hamilton was visibly disappointed, citing the fact that Russell ha▨d the new front wing as a reason for the difference in their performance.

“For sure, 🌳for sure. Great, yesterday. We have worked hard to improve th𓂃is car,” he said.

“From the get-go it felt great and we were competitive yesterday and this morning. We didn’t make any drastic💮 changes. The team worked hard, back at the factory, to bring an upgrade for the past two weekends, and an upgrade here. But we only have one, which George has.

“So I anticipated it would be difficult to out-qualify Georg༒e because he has the [upgraded] component. It’s great to see that we are bringing upgrades.”

Hamilton was incredibly downbeat about his qua🎐lifying display, particularly as he was 💛beaten yet again by Russell.

The 39-🎃year-old made a remarkable claim where he doesn’t “anticipate” that he will be ahead of Russell at all this year on a Saturday.

“I don’t anticipate being ahead of George in qualifying par♛ticularly, this year. We ha⛄ve got to keep pushing,” he commented.

Hamilton was left perplexed by his lack of qualifying performanc🐬e relative to practice.

He t🔯opped t𒅌he timesheets in FP1 before finishing in the top three in the other two sessions.

“Once we got to qualifying, I don’t understand,” he added. “I already know automatically that I will lose two tenths, going into qualifying. That is definitel꧃y frustrating.

“It’s something I haven’t asked forꦿ. I am not driving any different. The laps are really great. I don’t know. It’s jಞust lacking, for some reason.”
