Toto Wolff says Lewis Hamilton and George Russell “worked together” to get the car “to a sweeter spot”, and so “results throughout the year were irrelevant”.
James Vowles says early in 2022 “when we had a car that was difficult Lewis was using his wealth of experience to help us in order to improve the car”.
George Russell says he was “naturally happier with the car from day one, so I think Lewis was trying more things to try and find the setup that worked for him”.
