Is Lewis Hamilton back to his best? That’s the question we ask in the latest edition of The Race F1 Podcast. Nelson Valkenburg and Mark Hughes join Edd Straw to look at Hamilton’s start to the season, and decide what conclusions can be drawn about his strong start. We tackle listener questions on the reasons for Hamilton’s past struggles, why he’s better suited to the current cars and his general demeanour. The progress of team-mate Charles Leclerc and Ferrari heir apparent Ollie Bearman are also delved into, along with a look at some of the other drivers who have started well, or troublingly, under the new regulations.
