Lewis Hamilton asks FIA to introduce new rules on Car Development

Lewis Hamilton, a seven-time world champion in Formula One in an interview with SkySports says “I think the FIA should probably put a time when everyone is allowed to start developing on the next year’s car”. The former champions says this because Red Bull has already started working on their next season car development. However, Hamilton believes this gives an unfair advantage to one particular team. Mercedes drivers thinks FIA should give a date as and when can teams start developing their cars for next season. Speaking further he says “So August 1, that’s when everybody can start so then no one can get an advantage on the next year, cause that s***s”.

Red Bull have symbolically got wings this season on their cars, as they have won all the 8 races this season. Moreover, Max Verstappen is leading the Drivers Championship by over 69 points to his nemesis and Teammate Sergio Perez. However, Alonso is third with nine points deficit to Perez, Followed by Hamilton 93 points behind dutchman.

However, in the Constructors Championship Red Bull Racing are on top with 321 points leading to number 2 Mercedes by over 150 points. Third in place are the dark horses of the season Aston Martin with 154 points. Given the touch the car and Alonso are in had Stroll performed well, Aston Martin would be sailing at second spot. Mercedes were able to grab podiums in last tow races in Canada and Barcelona. Lewis believes the car is very well upgraded and no further developments is required. If things go right they will be able to catch Red Bull by the season end.

Lewis Hamilton did enjoy the advantage with Mercedes previously

This is not the first time that a team has got an advantage over the other. Before Lewis also enjoyed the benefits of Car Development rule with Mercedes and so did Vettle while racing for Red Bull. However, the legends says just to avoid such incidents in future FIA must bring in new rules. Seeking the reactions of defending Champion Verstappen, He says, “Life is unfair, as well. So it’s not only in Formula 1,”

The champion also said these questions weren’t asked when they were in the same position so this should be a talking point now also. Talking about the 2023 season as of now there seem to be no competition for Red bull and Verstappen. Even the budget cut did not have any effect on the performance of the team. Many wonder what else they could have do if they had the full budget.
