Is Lewis going to complain about lack of communication with the engineer or bad strategy for how he was passed by Hulkenberg while Leclerc took the podium from Verstappen... that was embarrassing...

I'd understand Lando's aggressiveness, if they were fighting for P1, but P4... come on, man! Another year, another rookie move.

Lando wanted to snatch a few points from Oscar not the position itself.
Yeah, I know, but it's merely 2 points difference between P4 and P5. Not worth pushing to the limit, knowing Piastri is slower with few laps left. Lando could have overtaken him in that timeline.

He clealry got frustrated big time this season with Oscar being so error free and better than him.

Rumors of Vasseur being done after this season. Hamilton saying publicly he wishes he could speak about the stuff he has seen this season. Reports about Leclerc considering a way out.

Crashing like the Italian economy, due to some typical Italian arrogance and incompetence. Why hire foreign top talent when you can keep letting the same local losers stink it around for a decade more.

Vasseur and Hamilton go way back to GP2 ART team. I don't think that's the issue there, but I'm only guessing based on their mutual respect.

Hamilton want Vasseur to stay.

It's more about the incompetence and dogshit culture and politics within Ferrari. At least that's what I'd assume he's thinking about.

This is what Vasseur said a few days ago:

"We need to ask the right questions on why Ferrari hasn't been winning for years now. "We changed the team principal, we changed the drivers, we have changed everything. "Except for one thing."

It's upper management/leadership. They are the ones that won't allow big changes within the team itself or a restructure.

Ferrari commit the legacy mistake of thinking Vasseur is the next great Frenchman in Jean Todt. He's not. But it's not his fault completely. The head engineers that develop the cars hardly get the criticism.

Hiring veterans like Hamilton is another one, tbf. It's very windy when you're at helm of Ferrari.

I think he just wanted to one up him which would have given him the confidence boost he needed, but it backfired big time...

Maybe he was thinking that Piastri will go right and he can cross check him after turn 1, but for me with the advantage he had he could have easily pass him without taking that chance and overthinking it...

Now even thought 20ish points difference does not look that much, with how Piastri is performing the whole year, trying to avoid any any uncontrolable fights and being among the top 3-4 almost every time, while Lando is making some silly mistakes, things are looking rough for Lando...

The only way he can get back in it is getting 2-3 wins in a row in the next few races, but with him getting more and more frustrated I really don't see it coming...

But this is exactly how you can prove you are WC material and I am excited to see how things will go in the next few races

It seems Norris is back. Hopefully he'll continue like that and give Oscar a good fight till the end of the season.
