Lewis Hamilton picked up on Wednesday morning at Silverstone where Mercedes teammate Valtteri Bottas left off yesterday as the Brackley squad continued its preparations for the start of the 2020 season.

Hamilton took to a wet track in the morning onboard Mercedes' 2018 W09 chassis as teams are not allowed under current regulations to run a new-spec machine in private testing.

An addition to allowing Hamilton to stretch his legs ahead of next month's Austrian Grand Prix curtain-raiser, the Silver Arrows continued to practice its safety procedures and hygiene protocols that all teams will be required to respect at events this summer.
