The seven-time world champion topped the times in a best lap of one minute and 13.718 seconds to beat his team-mate by 0.027 seconds, the duo making the most of the best track conditions before heavy rain curtailed the action at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve.
MONTREAL, CANADA - An upbeat Lewis Hamilton demonstrated his undimmed vim and speed on Friday when he led George Russell in a Mercedes one-two in a truncated and interrupted day's practice at the Canadian Grand Prix."That was probably the bumpiest circuit we've been on for a long time," Hamilton said. "And it was such a strange day. We missed the first session because of an issue with the circuit's CCTV, and I felt bad for the fans.
"It's just so bumpy. We have to improve the ride control and balance in the corners and we should be all right." "It's nice to be at the front and not the back, but don't read too much into it," he told Sky Sports F1. "We did our long run work first and our short runs at the end, when the track was its best before the rain."
