Hamilton: Better than Silverstone

Lewis Hamilton notes some improvements at the Nürburgring this Friday as compared to Silverstone, but doesn't see any chance of pole in qualifying.

There were positive aspects and some negative ones, was how Lewis Hamilton's summed up Friday at the Nürburgring. On the positive front, he found that they ran much better than at Silverstone: "On the long runs, we seem to be just two or three tenths adrift, and that's much better than in the previous race." But considering the negative side of things, he had to confess that McLaren will probably have no chance of being amongst the front runners in qualifying: "We can't find an immediate solution. We lack downforce. That' s the only thing that's stopping me and Jenson from posting similar times to the other drivers."
