I dunno. He could have possibly been on podium had Leclerc gotten out of his way earlier. I think his frustration is valid… Particularly considering how Ferrari once again basically gave him no real information to work off of. It just feels like he is somehow the smartest one in their room despite simultaneously driving the car, and that can’t be a good feeling from the cockpit. I would be frustrated too. It just highlights how Ferrari strategy is regularly not on point.










This is a track that’s notorious for difficult passing, and obviously when discussing two teammates, team orders are part of the conversation. Not to mention, the team has incentive to finish as high as possible, irrespective of which driver finished higher. It’s more complex than “just pass him”. Hamilton had a point. Mercedes did it quick and they finished as strong as they reasonably could. Ferrari didn’t, and possibly/likely lost a spot because of that decision.
