After a disappointing performance at the Singapore Grand Prix, Lewis Hamilton expressed his pride in the Ferrari team`s efforts while urging them to rally together.
Hamilton`s participation at the Marina Bay Street Circuit followed the recent passing of his beloved dog, Roscoe. He shared his deep appreciation for the outpouring of support he received during this difficult time.
Despite qualifying ahead of his teammate Charles Leclerc – a first since the British Grand Prix in July – Ferrari`s pace lagged significantly behind rivals Mercedes, Red Bull, and McLaren. Hamilton, encountering a brake issue, finished seventh on track, which was then demoted to eighth after a five-second penalty for repeated track limit infringements.
“Returning home after a difficult week, my primary emotion is gratitude following my experience in Singapore,” wrote Hamilton on social media.
“The immense support and affection I`ve received since Roscoe`s loss has served as a poignant reminder that even amidst adversity, the world holds an abundance of positivity; one simply needs to seek it out.”
