Lewis Hamilton has endured a challenging opening season as a Ferrari driver and is yet to claim a podium in red.
His highlight of the season came in China, where he converted a sprint pole position into victory - but in the main grand prix, Hamilton has not managed to climb into a top three.
Hamilton's highly successful F1 career includes at least one podium finish in every season, a streak that looks in danger of ending this year.
Ferrari team principal Fred Vasseur recently highlighted his belief that Hamilton would manage a podium before the season is out.
Team-mate Charles Leclerc has enjoyed a more positive outing this year with five podiums to his name.
Just eight races remain in the campaign for Hamilton to break into the top three and claim his first podium as a Ferrari driver.
