Mercedes team boss Toto Wolff says Lewis Hamilton is “on the right track” when it comes to his battle with COVID-19.
Hamilton tested positive to COVID-19 last Monday and is now in a race against time to beat the disease in time for the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. Toto Wolff says the seven-time champion could test negative by Thursday or Friday.
“It’s pretty ugly what he has gotten into,” said Wolff to Sky Germany.
“And if you’re not at home, but lying in your hotel room, it’s naturally unpleasant.

“I think he is on the right track. If the doctors’ prognosis is correct, he could manage to deliver a negative test on Thursday or Friday.”
The Austrian also confirmed the fact that another driver was driving his championship winning car wasn’t easy on Hamilton.
“If an upcoming young driver is sitting in your car, with which you won the world championship, then of course these are all factors that do not contribute to you jumping through your hotel room with a sky-high cheer.”
