Lewis Hamilton takes issue with Ferrari F1 preparation: 'It's not helping'

Lewis Hamilton had a disappointing Miami Grand Prix weekend, finishing seventh in the sprint race and sixth in the main race, despite Ferrari bringing 11 upgrades to the circuit. Hamilton criticized his preparation methods, specifically the simulator work he conducted at Maranello during the five-week break, saying it proved irrelevant once the car hit the track on Friday. He announced he will change his preparation approach for the next race, also flagging a straight-line speed deficit of three to four tenths that he says will persist until Ferrari addresses it.
