Meanwhile, the British driver is hopeful for winter developments on the W15 car. There’s excitement about the potential breakthrough that could once again elevate Mercedes to the status of a top team. Interestingly, Hamilton isn’t the only one trying out this strategy.

Moreover, the notebook shows Newey’s commitment to studying other cars, a strategy similar to Hamilton’s quest for being the best. Former racing driver Sebastian Vettel, affectionately known as ‘Inspector Seb,’ has employed a similar strategy. This highlights that many in Formula 1 adopt this competitive tactic.
