Lewis Hamilton has won two grands prix, plus this year's sprint race in China, since the start of the 2022 season

Lewis Hamilton left the last race of the first part of the Formula 1 season saying he was looking forward to a break - and acting like he needed one.

For the most successful driver in the history, it has not been an easy first 14 races with Ferrari.

The season started with Hamilton full of positivity about his new environment, and a sprint race pole and victory at the second race of the season in China hinted at great promise.

But reality bit back hard within 24 hours of that success. Both Ferraris were disqualified from the grand prix in Shanghai for technical infringements, having not been on the pace of the McLarens.
