Mercedes endured a difficult first day in Mexico with both drivers trailing pace-setter Max Verstappen by a second in FP1.<\/p>\n
In the aftermath Lewis Hamilton admitted that his W14 felt much different than the one he had in Austin as the team had to make adjustments following his post-race disqualification.<\/p>\n
“I mean the car is night and day different compared to last week. And yeah, I don\u2019t know what to say, you just never know what you\u2019re going to get with this one.” Hamilton said.<\/p>\n
“I think it\u2019s hard to extract the lap, I think there is definitely performance there. It\u2019s just hard to extract it and it\u2019s quite peaky this weekend with the aero map or whatever it might be.”<\/p>\n
The 7-time world champion further added that they need to keep working in order to get back on Saturday. He feels the pace is there, but the car is unpredictable.<\/p>\n
