F1 Mercedes' British driver Lewis Hamilton speaks during a press conference in Sao Paulo, Brazil, on November 1, 2023, ahead of the upcoming Formula One Brazilian Grand Prix on November 5. — AFP picSAO PAULO, Nov 3 — Lewis Hamilton on Thursday played down his prospects at this weekend’s Sao Paulo Grand Prix, saying he was not being ‘dazzled’ by his recent upswing in form and speed.
“I really don’t know,” he said when asked if he can win Sunday’s race, after crossing the line a strong second behind champion Max Verstappen in Texas, where he was disqualified after a car inspection, and Mexico. “I’m more thinking quite long-term at the moment and short-term, just trying to solidify second in the constructors’ because that’s so important for everyone in the team, but I anticipate that Red Bull is going to blitz it because their car has been great.
A strong result for Hamilton would also enhance his chances of finishing runner-up to Verstappen in the drivers’ title race.
