Lewis Hamilton: 'We must address tyre issues'

Lewis Hamilton admits that Mercedes needs to address their type problems following a disappointing showing in the Spanish Grand Prix.

Lewis Hamilton was insisted that it is of paramount importance that Mercedes address their type problems following a disappointing showing in the Spanish Grand Prix.

The Brit, along with teammate Nico Rosberg, struggled in the latter stages as they found it hard to make their tyres last until the end of the race.

"I have a trip to Orlando first, and then after that I need to get back into the factory. It is not rocket science I don't think," Hamilton told AutoSport.

"I don't know why it has taken us so long to get hold of it, as clearly Ferrari has and Lotus has obviously figured it out. We just need to do it, and I am sure we will at some point. I think we all need to just pull together, which we have been doing all year.

"But now it is more important than ever, particularly after a race like this. We have to take a step back, look at what happened objectively and try and figure it out."

Fernando Alonso claimed first position in the Spanish Grand Prix.
