Lewis Hamilton was the first to drive the car this morning, The Briton enjoyed his first encounter with the W08: "The car felt great. The front is much wider and even feels huge, but you may notice that the car has more grip."
Valtteri Bottas will take to the track this afternoon to take the W08 for a ride. Boss Toto Wolff dared not to make any bold predictions. "Maybe someone is going to make a magical find, hopefully we do. We will see it in the tests."
