Lewis Hamilton has blasted recent F1 rule changes – even though they have put him in with a chance of the drivers championship again.

The British driver resumes the season after the summer break 11 points behind Mercedes team mate Nico Rosberg ahead of the Belgium Grand Prix.
Sebastian Vettel had dominated the sport for the last four years but he and his Red Bull team have struggled this season with the new changes to the engines and fuel consumption.

Although the new changes have brought a new found interest in the sport after Hamilton himself admitted fans were getting “bored” of the sport, he is not a fan.
He confessed: “I’m not a not a huge admirer of the direction F1 is taking.
“Personally, I’m not a huge admirer of the direction that everything’s going in, in the sense that the cars get slower every year so physically it’s easier for me in the car.
“Maybe in the hot conditions it’s still a challenge, but generally it will take me two race distances to feel the same as I did in my first season.
“They’re fast on the straights of course but slower through some corners and that makes a difference.
“I just feel Formula One is the pinnacle so it should be so draining that when you finish the race you should barely be able to get out of the car.
“And the cars should be the fastest they can be within the boundaries of safety.
“However, our sport also has to stay relevant and some of the technologies that have been brought in such as the energy recovery systems, which we can see being used on road cars, are definitely a positive step.”
“But it is definitely more entertaining for the fans to watch.”
