Mercedes F1 legend Lewis Hamilton has been seen with his left hand on the top of the steering wheel, sparking debate about why he uses a technique not seen by the other drivers on the grid
Formula One fans have just begun to notice Lewis Hamilton ’s bizarre steering wheel technique - and his Mercedes mechanic has sought to explain the mystery.
A Mercedes mechanic finally sought to explain the strange technique last year after much speculation on social media. And his reasoning - which quickly went viral - was recorded while taking fans on a tour of the Mercedes pit. One of the suggestions for Hamilton's decision is that he favours a smaller gear shifting paddle to that of his fellow drivers and could be more prone to the aforementioned issue.
