Lewis Hamilton aims to reignite his enjoyment and competitiveness for the final 10 races after a difficult first half following his move to Ferrari. Hamilton intends to work hard, adjust parts of the team's approach, and reduce pressure by refocusing on enjoyment and teamwork. The switch from 12 years at Mercedes has proved challenging, with the Ferrari off the pace and performance dipping notably at the Hungarian Grand Prix. A summer break provided a reset. Hamilton currently sits sixth in the drivers' championship and has gone 16 races without a podium, having qualified 12th in Budapest.
I feel determined and motivated to [move forward], he said. We're going to work hard, keep our heads down, try to change a few things in our approach and start to enjoy ourselves. There's been so much pressure in this first half of the season that's not been the most enjoyable. So I think just remembering that we love what we do. We're all in this together and yeah, we're trying to have some fun.
The reason I got into this sport, it was fun for me, he said. For anyone in whatever career you're in, if you're not enjoying what you're doing, then why are you doing it? There can often be so much noise you can lose sight of what's really, really important. I just really want to focus on getting back to that enjoyment.
