- ‘I wouldn’t miss it for the world’, Hamilton says on social media
- Mercedes driver suffering from car’s ongoing ‘porpoising’ issue
Lewis Hamilton says he expects to be able to take part in this weekend’s Canadian Grand Prix despite suffering back pain during Sunday’s Azerbaijan Grand Prix.
The 37-year-old struggled to get out of his Mercedes cockpit after the 51-lap race in Baku, after complaining that “my back is killing me” over the team radio. Both Hamilton and his teammate, George Russell, suffered as a result of their cars “porpoising” – bouncing on the track as a result of new aerodynamic regulations.
