Despite experiencing back pain on Sunday – due to his Mercedes W13’s constant porpoising – Lewis Hamilton said he’ll see fans in Montreal at the Canadian Grand Prix next week.
Hamilton finished fourth at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix on Sunday, a race he afterwards described as “the most painful” to date.
In an Instagram post, Hamilton said it “looks terrible and feels 100 times worse”, but is determined to recover and “overcome this hurdle” before the team heads to Montreal.
“Feeling better already, though, and motivated to keep pushing. See you next week”, he added.
