Lewis Hamilton was struggling to get performance out of the car on Friday and to add to his woes, he also managed to sustain some damage to the car.

The 37-year-old deemed the damage as one of the reasons that caused him problems during the session. While giving insights into his Friday afternoon, Hamilton said, “I didn’t get to run at the end because I sustained some damage. So, I lost a lot of downforce, and after that, it was tricky with the long-run pace. It’s going to be a tough weekend that is for sure, but we will give it everything.”
