Ham out in Q1 in the wet, crazy
Awful middle sector in his final attempt other drivers were still going green in that sector but no idea why he did 2 cooldown laps prior to that lap when others were pushing every lap to keep tyres temperature.

His onboard showed no grip whatsoever in S2.

Lewis has really lost it. It's going to be difficult few years next.

i think he did two push laps back to back, realized the first run wasnt enough to get him out of Q1 then went again immediately after, either way he was complaining the entire session of having no rear grip

Lewis’ car is obviously too low and aquaplaning impossible to drive. It’s like Merc are doing this on purpose could just be a few mm compared to Russell. If weather stays the same for race and Lewis’s car is changed and right you will see him do much better. That wasn’t right

Lewis was complaining about no grip on his very first run and was pretty pissed on the radio the entire time saying the car is undriveable. Karun just went over it, says theres just no rear grip on the car and that theres nothing Lewis could do about it.

Did Russell get away with unsafe return to track nearly taking out Albon?

This has been a trend this season. Hamilton is-unable-to/can't-be-bothered-to drive a car that isn't behaving the way he would like it to. Probably a sign of age setting in and reducing the 'human's operating window'.
George Russel is 1.7s faster in sector2 (a sector that takes ~36s in the dry) and Hamilton says "undriveable".
I consider Hamilton to be one of the elite greats, but some truths need to be accepted, however harsh they are.

i mean sure but Karun reviewed the replays with onboard as well and pretty much agreed with Lewis that the car just had no rear end (something he complained about on the first run) and said there wasnt much Lewis could do about it

Nothing to do with age. It’s car set up car is too low and aquaplaining nothing he or anyone could do driving that

Not the time to floor the throttle Carlos... This can now easily also interfere with his team mate's time after red flag...
And they call it a stall. A STALL!
