It is being reported that Ferrari driver Lewis Hamilton was running a higher downforce wing compared to his teammate Charles Leclerc during the first two Practice sessions in Singapore.
However, Lewis Hamilton could only manage a P10 in the FP2 session after he failed to set a representative lap time in a chaotic session.
As per Auto Racer, the 105-time F1 race winner was running a higher downforce rear wing compared to Charles Leclerc, which was the reason behind his straight-line speed deficit of 5-6km/h to the latter.
Currently, his favorite drivers on the grid are Charles Leclerc and Daniel Ricciardo; he is particularly impressed by how the two drivers rarely lose their cool and approach everything with a smile on their faces.
He classifies himself as a ‘Tifosi’ and is a Charles Leclerc fan.
