For the first time in his F1 career, Hamilton went an en💎tire campaign without a victory or pole position. 

Hamilton slumped to his worst championship finish - sixth - and was beaten by his teammate -168澳洲5最新开奖结果: George Russell.

Button, who was Hamilton’s teammate at McLaren between 2010 and 2012 - used his own retirement 🅷as an example of how not having a race winning car ca🍸n affect you.

“It’s something [not having a winning car] we all go through in our careers,” Button told Sky. “It’s a reason why a lot of people r⭕etire, they are not in a✃ winning car anymore. That’s why I left.

“You can deal with the pressure you put yourself under and the cale🎃ndar, if you are in a winning car. When you are not, you are like ‘I’ve had enough, I want to get out’.

“Mercedes have giꦚven him a winning car for so many years. Last year obviously didn’t but the car did win a race last year, so you would say at the end of the year they were strong.”

Even though Hamilton finished behind his teammate in the final standings, from Canad💟a onwards, ❀he was often the quicker of the two Mercedes drivers.

Button believes Hamilton will start F1 2023 “flat-out”.

“I think Lewis was on it,” 🍌he explained. “His per🐎formances were very consistent, mid-to-end of the season, very, very quick.

“I think he’ll start this year flat-out. He’s goi🐠ng to be on it from the wo🦄rd go, so I look forward to seeing that.

“It’s going to put a lot of pressure on George Russell, I think it’s 💖a good pairing. But as I said, I think Lewis will be on it from the word go and I look forward to that fight.”
