Hamilton expresses disappointment as Ferrari finishes fifth in Austrian GP

Lewis Hamilton left the Austrian Grand Prix bitter after finishing fifth with Ferrari, citing power‑unit and performance shortfalls that hampered his race. He started from second on the grid and kept pace with George Russell in the opening laps, but the car’s power unit lost performance as the race progressed.

Max Verstappen and emerging talents overtook him, exposing the shortcomings of Ferrari’s updated engine. Hamilton told Sky Sport F1 that the team’s power unit remains the Achilles’ heel.
