The article mentions that the team found a problem with the floor of hamiltons Car a few hours after the race which caused him to be slow all weekend. Lauda also mentions that the 2017 car doesn't suit Lewis driving style

 

Now you are happy that you found an excuse...
But the damage on the floor was realized after qualy already and Toto Wolff doubted that it was the reason for his performance!!!
And according to your own words a good driver must be able to adapt to the car as you told us numerous times after Vettels 2014 season. So maybe you should take your own words instead of trying to find another excuse how unfair life is to Lewis....

 

There it is....... your excuses start, yet the guy won a race with this years car, and two seconds, so guess it's the last week of April car he doesn't agree with, not the march or first three weeks of April car? I hope then that as the car gains a little age, he likes it less and less, while a more competent and capable driver would adapt and respond to the changes -maybe they could get Alonso to come in and show elton how to adapt to a terrible car? Hahahaha

Laughable

 

LOLOLOLOLOLOL...your excuses haven't improved one bit Toil..better try harder...

 

They found it before the race and fixed it.

No obvious reason for Hamilton's lack of pace in Russia

From ESPN:

Mercedes discovered a slightly damaged floor on Hamilton's car in Q3, but it was fixed before the race and the team doubts it was the reason for the big gap to Bottas.
