刘易斯·汉密尔顿认为他在美国大奖赛期间驾驶的法拉利设置有很多不足，他的前翼在整个比赛中“下降了12个点击”，据这位七届冠军所说，这就是他和队友查尔斯·勒克莱尔之间的性能差距所在。
汉密尔顿在美国赛车场起跑第五，最终冲过终点线时排名第四。尽管对于这位车手来说这可能算是一次轻微成功的比赛，但在前两节练习中，由于领跑者逐渐拉开差距，他遭遇了严重的转向不足。
“在前两节练习中，我基本上缺乏速度，”他说。“我根本无法操控赛车。我认为这一切实际上都始于周五。P1的设置完全错误，然后在P2中又走错了方向。后来又调整回来，为P3找到了一个更好的位置。
“但查尔斯和我以及我们的赛车在比赛中有一些细微的差别，这主要与扰流板有关，即你放多少翼片，我认为我们只是没有达到预期。不知为何，我们一直在低于预期。
“当你完成一圈到起跑线时，感觉赛车还不错，但一旦比赛开始，就会出现巨大的水漂和转向不足，我对此无能为力，所以他们就这样拉开了距离。我失去了八秒，这也是我最终没有获得那个位置的原因。”
汉密尔顿表示，法拉利在每个维修区停留时都更换了前翼，但到比赛结束时仍未找到正确的平衡。
“因为在维修区停留时我增加了四次点击。下一个维修区我又增加了四次点击，即便如此，我仍然还差四次点击。这太疯狂了，落后12次点击，我们真的需要看看我们是如何陷入这个局面的，你知道？但如果我们从一开始就有这个设置，我想在P2的长跑中，查尔斯就能获得这方面的经验，而我却没有在这上面进行过长跑。”
一旦赛车在最后一节练习中开始转向，汉密尔顿与前方赛车的速度持平，并表示如果从一开始就有那个平衡，他“肯定”会站在领奖台上。
“我选择使用两条中等轮胎，因为他们认为硬胎不会有什么好效果。事后看来，两条硬胎会更好。硬胎是最好的轮胎。”
那让他从一套二手的软胎开始比赛，他说这比前面的新车胎快了“两秒的赛时”。即便如此，他起步强劲，几乎拿到了第三名。不幸的是，他没能超过勒克莱尔。
随后的一辆虚拟安全车结束了与维斯塔潘在最后一圈决斗的希望，汉密尔顿表示“那将会很棒”。
第四名的成绩让汉密尔顿在车手锦标赛第二名的争夺中与乔治·拉塞尔只差一分。

Lewis Hamilton reveals the Ferrari setup mistake that cost him US GP podium
Lewis Hamilton has questioned Ferrari's setup decisions after struggling with severe understeer in Austin
For Ferrari fans. The latest Scuderia Ferrari F1 news, driver updates, technical analysis and race reaction from Maranello and beyond.
Lewis Hamilton believes the set-up he ran on his Ferrari during the United States Grand Prix left much to be desired, with his front wing being "12 clicks down" for much of the race. According to the seven-time champion, this is what caused the performance gap between him and team-mate Charles Leclerc.
Hamilton started fifth at the Circuit of the Americas and crossed the line fourth. Despite what could be seen as a mildly successful race for the driver, he wrestled with heavy understeer in the opening two stints as the leaders drove away.
“I was lacking pace in the first two stints basically," he said. "I just couldn’t turn the car. And I think ultimately it all kind of started on Friday. Wrong set-up really for P1 and then went the wrong direction in P2. Reverted back and got to a better place for P3.
"But there’s a subtle difference between Charles and I and our cars basically just in the race and it’s just to do mostly with flap, for how much wing you put in, and I think we’ve just been underhitting it. Continuously under hit it for some reason.
"And when you do the lap to the grid it feels like the car is good and then as soon as the race starts massive washout and understeer and I couldn’t do anything about it, so they just pulled away. I lost those eight seconds and that’s really why I didn’t get that position in the end.”
Hamilton said Ferrari added front wing at each of his pitstops, but still had not found the right balance by the end of the race.
“Because through the pitstops I added four clicks. The next pitstop I added another four clicks and even then I’m still another four clicks too short. And it’s crazy, to be 12 clicks down, we really need to look at how we get into that point, you know? But I think it would have been a bit different if we had started with it, I think in P2 where you did the long run. That’s where Charles got the experience on that set-up and I didn’t get the long run on it.”
Once the car started to turn in the final stint, Hamilton matched the pace of the cars ahead, and said he would “for sure” have been on the podium had he had that balance from the start.
“I chose to have two medium tyres because they didn’t think the hard tyre was going to be any good. In hindsight two hard tyres would have been the better one. The hard tyre was the best tyre.”
That left him starting on a used set of softs, which he said was worth “two seconds of race time” compared with the new tyres on the cars ahead. Even so, he started strong and almost took third. Unfortunately for him, he wasn't able to pass Leclerc.
A late virtual safety car then ended any hope of a final-lap fight with Max Verstappen, which Hamilton said “would have been awesome”.
Fourth place moves Hamilton to within a point of George Russell in the fight for second in the drivers’ championship.
