Lewis Hamilton's hopes of finally landing an F1 win this weekend have been boosted by Mercedes boss Toto Wolff.
At 38, the seven-time world champion has arguably endured the most difficult 18 months of his distinguished career, failing to win a single Grand Prix in 2022 as the Silver Arrows struggled to adapt to F1's new era. In eight races so far this year, his barren run has continued, despite three podium finishes.
He last took the chequered flag on December 5, 2021, in Saudi Arabia. That was followed by the infamous Adu Dhabi race a week later, where the British icon was set to take the win - and the Championship - before the controversial safety car saga that ultimately gifted the honours to Max Verstappen.
