By IANS News November 30, 2024 • 11:58 AM View: 808

Qatar Grand Prix: Seven-time Formula One champion Lewis Hamilton admitted that he is 'definitely not fast anymore' after finishing seventh in the Qatar Grand Prix sprint qualifying on Friday.

Hamilton, who is in his final season at Mercedes, was 0.399 seconds slower than teammate George Russell, who will start the sprint race second behind McLaren's Lando Norris.

"Same as every other qualifying - not that great. I'm just slow. Same every weekend. Car felt relatively decent. You know, no issues. Not really much more to say," Hamilton said after the qualifying.
