Lewis Hamilton recently visited a school in Kuala Lumpur as part of the ‘Towards Sustainable Communities’ program and to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of Petronas. The seven-time Formula 1 world champion is a strong advocate for various social causes around the world, including LGBTQ+ rights and women’s participation in sports. During the 2024 season, Hamilton was seen interacting with students at a school in Kuala Lumpur.
Hamilton surprised SMK Seri Keramat in Kuala Lumpur with his visit, which was in celebration of Petronas’ 50th Anniversary and aligned with the ‘Towards Sustainable Communities’ program. Petronas has long been a sponsor of Hamilton’s team, Mercedes. Accompanying Hamilton were other members of the Mercedes team, who also took part in the event.
Hamilton spent quality time with the teachers and students at the school in Kuala Lumpur, although specific details about the visit were not disclosed by the driver or the team. However, the students and teachers were pleasantly surprised to have the Formula 1 maestro visiting their school as part of a program. This further solidifies Lewis Hamilton’s reputation as a genuinely good person.
The 2024 season has not been ideal for Mercedes, with Hamilton expressing doubts about the chassis. The team currently occupies the fourth position in the constructors’ championship after a weak performance in the first two races. Hamilton acknowledges that the upcoming races will present challenges for the team and emphasizes that high-speed circuits will be especially demanding for Brackley in Formula 1.
A pesar de los contratiempos, el heptacampeón mundial reconoce los aspectos positivos del rendimiento por debajo de lo esperado del retador W15. Hamilton destaca el rendimiento relativamente fuerte del coche en sectores de baja y media velocidad. En algunos momentos, se sintió como si estuviera compitiendo en una categoría diferente al conducir a alta velocidad junto a otros pilotos en la parrilla.
Por lo tanto, Brackley está apuntando a mejorar su rendimiento en la segunda mitad de la temporada de 2024. El equipo está trabajando diligentemente para recuperar la forma antes del próximo GP de Australia. Mercedes necesita aumentar su ritmo y sumar puntos al principio para seguir siendo competitiva en el campeonato de constructores.
