Hamilton supports Vettel: ''It's not nice when the team doesn't want you anymore''

Sebastian Vettel is under great pressure at Ferrari. It no longer bumps between the driver and the team, so the question is how long this can go well. Lewis Hamilton sees his former rival struggling and he hates it.

''I saw the difficult race he had at Silverstone and I try to feel the movement in him and with him, because he is in a difficult position. It's never fun when you're no longer wanted in a team, but you still have to work for it. You give everything for such a team, all your heart'', says Hamilton according to Motorsportweek.com.

In Spain Vettel struck back, although not without a fight. The German had a lively discussion with his engineer about the onboard radio, who suddenly came up with the question whether he could go through to the end three laps after he had indicated to push. That situation is not ideal, but Hamilton still believes in his former title rival.

''He's still working very hard and trying to move the team forward. That shows his character and commitment to racing. I hope something positive will come his way in the future'', concludes Hamilton. Vettel is often linked to a transfer to Aston Martin, where he could join Lance Stroll or Sergio Perez in 2021.
