Lewis Hamilton is looking forward to get back in the car again following the three-week break and factory shutdown at McLaren. The Briton is eager to continue his championship fight with the Red Bull and Ferrari drivers at one of his favourite tracks.
“Although it’s been great for the whole team to have had the factory shutdown and a well-deserved holiday, I think we’re all really looking forward to getting back into the title fight,” Hamilton said.
“The break gave us some valuable thinking time to consider how to improve our car for the remainder of the season – and we head into these two races not only optimistic of some better results, but also of stronger pace for the rest of the year.
“Neither Jenson or I had a great race at Spa last year – I didn’t see much of it from the cockpit, but I think Jenson was pushed into a spin from behind at Les Combes and the resulting accident took me out too. So it was weird to watch the whole race back in the garage.
“For this year, too, I head to Spa off the back of a disappointing non-finish in Hungary. We’ve investigated the causes, and think we’ve identified the reason and are confident that it shouldn’t happen again.
“Personally, I think Spa is one of the ‘great’ Formula 1 tracks, and one I’d really love to win. I’ll be going flat-out to try and get us back into the hunt again in Belgium, and it would be fantastic if we could take home another win at the end of the weekend.”
