lewis hamilton speaks to spanish media after the race, bahrain - march 2, 2024
Interviewer: "Hi, Lewis. So we heard that you had some seat problems. Could you explain to us a little bit what happened there?"
Lewis: "Yeah, honestly I think I was braking into turn one and then the seat just shifted, and my left butt cheek fell, basically. I think it just cracked, just snapped, something snapped, so then it was moving around for a while. [laughs] So I was basically… Yeah… Like my butt was in the air. On one side it was up in the air." [laughs]
Interviewer: "Well, sounds fun."
Who woulda thunk asking teams to build cars that are "the pinnacle of technology" on a budget with limited testing would have effects on reliability 🤷♀️
