Vettel wore period clothing for the demo, complete with racing goggles and a flat cap. Grosjean had a seat fitting with Mercedes but a plan to demonstrate the 2019 car at last year’s French GP, ahead of a full test day that week, had to be scrapped when the date was changed, creating a clash with his IndyCar commitments.

Lewis was amazing and also very supportive.” But again, just with our team, I always want to continue to be building. “It was mentioned at the beginning of the weekend and I didn't really think much of it,” said Hamilton on the figure.
