Lewis Hamilton Patient for Win This Season

Lewis Hamilton is patient that a win will come to him sometime this season. Hamilton has qualified on the front row during the first four races of the season and would have been on the pole at Catalunya if his car had not run out of fuel. Despite his fast performance, he has yet to win this season. 

"I am not frustrated, this is the way racing goes sometimes. Looking at the qualifying results we have had, we would have loved to finish further up and we definitely need to improve if we want to stay where we are or move forward - but we are working very hard to making sure it can continue," said Hamilton.

Team Principal Martin Whitmarsh believes that Hamilton is having an unlucky season. Many of his set backs have not directly been his fault. 

"Through no fault of his own he had a very severe penalty leveled against him [in Spain], and it is very easy at a circuit like Barcelona where overtaking is very difficult even with DRS to have some frustration," said Whitmarsh.

Without winning this season, Hamilton is still in third place in the drivers' championship. He is just 8 points down from the tied leaders Sebastian Vettel and Fernando Alonso. 

"He has the speed and capability to be on pole – and he has been on the front row in every race, and his driving is showing greater levels of maturity, control and discipline than perhaps we've seen before," said Whitmarsh.
