That Lewis interview..... As i said, No other team would of done that to there lead driver.
Hamilton is just looking for someone to blame. Russell refused the 2 stop.
Good drive by both drivers. Russell made the decisive call. This is a pattern in Hamilton's career compared to Russell. Russell always prefers to make the strat calls. Hamilton prefers to let the team make the call and then complain when it doesn't work at the end.
It’s not really that simple. If Lewis, in what was probably the third fastest car this weekend, didn’t make the right passes at the right time and didn’t keep the lead, if the McLaren was p1 they would’ve went in the distance since they had the better car and there would have been no chance at all for George to win. Lewis has a lot of merit in this team result and the team should’ve played nice with him and repaid his great work for the team in the first half of race. But it’s clear the team don’t care about him that much. Also, probably they didn’t even tell him George was on a one stop so he managed his race thinking George would stop. There is no way to go around this, Merc screwed Lewis on this one and he drove the best race out of anyone on the grid today. He deserved that win on merit. George was great, but got the win on the gamble more than on his driving.
