Lewis is coming off of a third-place finish on his home track in Silverstone.
Both Mercedes are the favorites to win this weekend and rightfully so as they have won all but two of the nine races so far. However, Ferrari is the only other team to claim victory this season and Hamilton picked up one of those victories. Not to mention, Hamilton leads all active drivers with five wins in Spa including a trip to the top step of the podium in the 2024 season.
