Lewis Hamilton said he didn't think the performance of his Mercedes could 'get any worse' before making a shock early exit from Chinese Grand Prix Qualifying.
Lewis Hamilton said he was surprised the performance of his Mercedes deteriorated in Chinese Grand Prix Qualifying, having thought it couldn't 'get any worse' before making a shock early exit. The seven-time world champion had enjoyed an encouraging start to Saturday as he finished second to Max Verstappen in the Sprint, but then only managed to qualify 18th for Sunday's race as team-mate George Russell took eighth.
'We weren't too dissimilar, to be honest,' he told Sky Sports F1. 'We both went in a similar direction. Obviously there are always small differences between the cars. 'We still need to learn as much as we can and when you arrive at a Sprint race you have no practice, no time to test. If we were to have maximised everything this weekend, maybe we would have been P3 or 4 on the grid, but we're not here to fight for P3 or 4 or 5.
