Hamilton: “Radio teams are important”

Asked about the many criticisms advanced by the four-wheel environment and by Bernie Ecclestone regarding F1 2.0 and specifically the radio communications that explain to the driver how to behave on the track Lewis Hamilton he shrugged and sent it back to the sender.

“Even if they didn't tell us what level the tires are at there would be no problem getting to the checkered flag, but as far as fuel is concerned we would run the risk of seeing several retirements – declared the British driver Mercedes to Autosport – In my opinion, even if we receive less information compared to a few years ago, some will always be necessary."

“For example, we need to know the temperatures of the tires or when they are starting to wear out, as well as how much petrol we are consuming given that in the race we are only focused on pushing and giving our best” – he explained.
