In the press conference, Hamilton discusses the progress his team has made in the last few races and the hope he derives from it. "I do think [a win] is close," the Brit said during the press conference on Sky Sports. "We have been improving and had consistency over recent races."
Moreover, he praises the growth his team has experienced during the current Formula One season. "Great progress the team is making.
