Ferrari's Lewis Hamilton tempers expectations: 'Rome wasn't built in a day'

Despite taking his first victory as a Ferrari driver in the sprint race at the Chinese Grand Prix, Lewis Hamilton continued to manage expectations ahead of Saturday's qualifying session, saying: "Rome wasn't built in a day."
After a difficult Ferrari debut in Australia last weekend, in which Hamilton struggled for confidence and finished 10th in wet conditions, he looked transformed during Saturday's 19-lap sprint race. Speaking after the race, he referenced "yapping" critics who he said failed to understand the challenge of switching teams, and underlined the importance of remaining patient in his pursuit of more victories.
