Lewis Hamilton was honest in a press release this evening as he admits that "we still have many of the same problems we had in the last race but we're working through them."

However, the seven-time world champion remains optimistic as "the grip is really good on the track and we just need to find some speed on the straights. We'll be heads down tonight, understanding the data from today and putting ourselves in the best position for qualifying tomorrow."
