He then later added: “There’s an incredible amount of bouncing.” Suggesting he needs extra protection in the car, Hamilton explained: “Need elbow pads in this cockpit, it’s bouncing so much.”
Hamilton went into the weekend surrounded by controversy over whether he would remove his jewellery and piercings to comply with the FIA’s rules after his two-race grace had ended at Monaco. The Brit has however been given another three-race extension to remove his jewellery and was told by Hill that he had an opportunity to enjoy success at Monaco – but the Englishman has not had the start he would have wanted.
Hill said: “It helps to have a good car, I think Ferraris will be very good here and Charles Leclerc on his home soil, but I think Lewis has got a chance. Anyone who has got a decent car has got a chance, and I think they have got rain forecast for Sunday so there again, it’s a big open opportunity for anyone.”
