Lewis Hamilton has revealed his experience of working with Ferrari race engineer Riccardo Adami during the Australian Grand Prix weekend.

Assessing the legendary Brit’s Ferrari debut, Brundle took a dim view. “And on that subject, despite lots of happy words, and reasons why he had to learn his steering wheel and other new aspects, Lewis Hamilton had a disappointing start to his Ferrari career by any metric,” he wrote in his Sky Sports F1 column.

Lewis Hamilton said he was “lacking information” from the Ferrari pitwall when he made the decision to stay out on slick tyres as the rain began to fall more heavily towards the end of Sunday’s chaotic, season-opening Australian Grand Prix.
