Seven-time Formula 1 champion Lewis Hamilton, driving for Mercedes, compared his W15 car to a log following a disappointing performance at the Brazilian Grand Prix.
It’s like a plank of wood. No suspension. Just bouncing on the tires everywhere and can’t get on the power anywhere. Just the worst ride I think, the worst ride that we've definitely ever had, particularly through corners.
