Toto Wolff says Lewis Hamilton could feel things happening inside his F1 car that Mercedes engineers couldn't explain, calling it a genetic ability "One example is an old friend and driver of mine, Lewis Hamilton" "You have two axles - a front axle, a rear axle - and you have the chassis in between. When you call a car understeer, it means when you turn the wheel and it goes straight" "That happens over the tires and the front axle. It's pretty normal" "But Lewis once said something when talking about the car: 'The car understeers from the front axle to where I sit.' That's the middle of the car. How can that understeer?" "The engineers couldn't really identify what he meant, but that is what his body told him or his brain told him the car is doing" "If a driver is able to have that underlying layer of ability, then that becomes unbeatable. But that is genetics"
