BAHRAIN GRAND PRIX - Stunned by the unlikely loss of the world title at the end of 2021, limited by an inoperable Mercedes in 2022, Lewis Hamilton starts again this season to the attack of an eighth title which would be the one of all the records for him.
With a W14 that reassured him during the tests, he has the ambition to regain the status of leader that George Russell stole from him last year.

He was unfortunately helped in this therapy by the design problems of his Mercedes W13, this "thing" taken of crazy bounces at high speed that he finally admitted being "impatient not to drive anymore".

For a year, the champion who flew from record to record put himself in "pause" mode and gave way to the technical enthusiast, hoping to square up a badly born car, for a pole position, a victory that his teammate George Russell took in the end.
