MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. (AP) — Lewis Hamilton arrived at the Miami Grand Prix admittedly frustrated with his slow start to the Formula 1 season driving for Ferrari.

There was little improvement to his performance, and Hamilton was ordered by Ferrari to give up seventh place in Sunday's race to teammate Charles Leclerc. Hamilton settled for eighth, his worst finish since he was disqualified from the second race of the season.

Even so, the seven-time F1 champion was upbeat after the race.

“I generally enjoyed the race,” Hamilton said.
