F1 drivers criticising Baku track moan too much - Lewis Hamilton
But after driving the circuit for the first time in practice Hamilton declared himself "well happy".
"These drivers, they moan so much about so many things," he continued.
"It`s really bumpy down the main straight and you can`t really see Turn 1 that well, the car`s vibrating, it`s really hard, but that`s part of racing.
"These guys want it to be smoother than ever and no vibrations and no bumps.
"They want to take all the character and life out of these tracks.
"I`m glad that this has bumps, but I guarantee you there`s going to be some people who say those things. I`ll just sit there and smile."
