Last Sunday in Baku, Lewis Hamilton saw his hopes of winning in Azerbaijan dashed after being forced to return to his stand to replace his headrest, the copy of which installed on his W08 had been poorly secured.

As Niki Lauda, ​​non-executive president of the German team, clarified, Mercedes should review the fixings of the part soon. “These fixings that hold the element did not fit together properly, specifies the three-time world champion in Osterreich.

And this was amplified by the high speeds achieved. We will be reviewing the system to ensure this does not happen again. Without this, victory would have been easily within our reach. »
