Valtteri Bottas: “Hamilton engineer swap was “a great opportunity”

Valtteri Bottas has said that it was “a great opportunity” to be able to work with one of Lewis Hamilton’s former engineers during the 2019 season. Bottas finished second in the drivers’ championship behind Hamilton, who clinched his six world title. "It was good for me to have a change, a different way of working with engineers," Bottas told Motorsport.com. "And also getting Ricci from Lewis's side, he's been working with him, so he knows very much in detail about his driving techniques and ways of setting up the car. "For sure, it was always going to be a great opportunity for me to get maybe something even more than what I normally get in the meetings and what I see from the data. "It was nice to have that kind of approach on the engineering side." Source- gpblog
