I feel like Perez was the wild card in Mercedes strategy and played a perfect wingman this past weekend, he should have gotten more attention after the race, despite having a bit of a boring race himself lol. Battles between strategies in less than optimal conditions always make for the best races.
Boring? He was involved in by far the most exciting part of the race
Perez had the best part of the race, that wasn't boring at all
Perez created the most exciting part of the race where he somehow managed to keep Lewis behind him.
If Perez who had to defend against Lewis had a boring race, what the other drives had!?
Perez should've definitely be the driver of the day. Makes no sense that Sainz - with an equipment you should fight for podium - gets the driver of the day with lucky positioning at the end...
Just life. No one has it all figured out, no matter how experienced. And in a dynamic environment, these things happen.
Yeah and it is cringe and annoying seeing the people that can’t understand this and just spam “cRyMiLtOn” and “CrYbAbY” while it is perfectly OK for Max or Kimi to be frustrated and complain.

@Bilal Lodhi the difference is hypocrisy. Kimi has always been the ice man 🥶 Lulu could never
If Lewis had pitted when first asked he would've had time to catch up and tyres would be safe ... Hindsight is a wonderful thing ... Ocon's tyres were delaminated and could've gone at any point... it's a shared team decision
Mayby it’s lucky Ocon got lapped. That’s one lap he didn’t have to do.
I think Hamilton's tires were in much better shape because of problaby the best downforce of the whole grid... Ocon's still had the tread but he also had a spot from a lockup... Same lockup could've happened to Hamilton in the last laps too though.
@@rkan2 yeah and Hamilton would have been losing positions anyways on the old tyres
@@FaceFish9 he would at least had a chance to defend his position, there was only 7 laps left and he had a gap back to perez and leclerc.
@@rkan2 He was behind Perez the whole time and tried to push hard while the weather did rain pretty heavily again in some final laps. The team made the most safest decision to help Hamilton retain small gap behind Verstappen (just 6 points with 6 races left), instead of 16 points if he got crashed.

Wait until hair loss kicks in
It's sad that Bottas won for Mercedes but everyone is focused on hamilton and how things went wrong for him.
He is Mercedes
Because he is the contender for the championship and Bottas isn't.
Bottas has never been a contender for the individual championship. He won, and he can win, but if Lewis did not get the engine change grid penalty, you know Hamilton would be up there beating him. Hamilton is overall a more consistent driver.
This race however, his frustration got the best of him and he pitted too late to work back into a better position.
Championship contender so obviously the focus is here.
Not everyone, just the rabid Hamilton fanbois at Sky and in the UK. If you're watching an English language official F1 vid to do with Hamilton, you know its told with a set of blinkers on. Hamilton is a great driver - but I think he made a mistake by not listening to his team. They have the 'bigger picture', and as he said at the end, it's a team sport. Great to see the pressure piling up with competitive cars from other teams - it puts Hamilton's talent into perspective. As George Russel showed last year, any decent driver in that car could dominate and win.
I feel like they should've pitted as soon as Perez pitted, Lewis had the pace to catch up Perez within 1-2 laps after pitting, he was the fastest on track before he ran out of tyres.
Or don't pit him at all
@@Mrdredz0071 he'd have finished the same position if they didn't pit him. Ocon was lapping much slower the last few laps and he's tyres didn't take the punishment Hamilton where . He should have pitted when the team called him in
He should have pitted at the same time as the one he’s fighting the championship over, Max.
@@Mrdredz0071 and have him be 3 seconds a lap slower than everybody else and risk a puncture
The rain came back in the later stages of the race, Lewis tyres were GONE by lap 45. Lewis was the FASTEST on track, he could've overtaken everyone ahead of him, but Bottas, you don't gamble when you're the fastest car on the track.
If he would’ve boxed the first time Bono told him to come in for Inter’s he would have had p4 and even a chance at p3. Engineers have all the data and a right 95% of the time
agree
he woldnt pass perez so p3 was gone foe sure. and just maybe pass leclrec he had great pace and they would have gone through the graining part at the same time so no advantage to any of them
I do agree that engineers are typically right, but when the conditions are like this, it gets a little tricky. Engineers have a whole lot more information and are able to look at the race from the outside in, but the driver is the only one that can have a feel for what the car is actually performing like. Especially in semi-wet conditions, it can be hard to find that middle point of agreement between driver and engineer.
@@JpForrReal either way drivers only know how well they feel in the car. they don't have stats on position intervals, forecasted tire degradation of their opponents, opponent lap times etc. Like OP said 95% of the time engineers are able to make better informed, DATA based decisions. there are hundreds of other variables that need to be considered and drivers simply aren't able to process all the necessary information.
Unless they’re Ferrari’s engineers

It's clearly Lewis' fault for delaying the box. His team was calling him in long time before he actually did. The nerve to blame the team after that is simply ballsy.
Right? It baffles me how this video shows the team calling him in, he ignores them for what, 10 laps or so? Then, when he finally pits, when all the advantage he built was lost, dude has the nerve to shift blame.
He thanks the team when things go his way, and throw the team under the bus when he's not winning. Even when it's his own fault.
I’m new to F1 this year, but this is exactly why Hamilton rubs me the wrong way. When he wins it’s all about “great job team!” and when he loses he always blames others.
Apparently Merc has had a long period of dominations with the car’s speed; it’s nice to see his true character come out when backed up against a corner and facing equal competition.
why are you idiots acting like other drivers aren't like this on the radio smh double standards
Watch Lewis interview after the race...
@@kindredxxix4578 for a new fan you do seem to have a strong animosity. from the top of your head give me when hamilton blamed the team when he lost. by the way if you watched the race live button had made a comment about how hamilton does not have idea he is about to lose 2 place when he was boxing, which happened to be true , and when he find that out, he ask the team why they gave the spot up in an angrily manner, which is understandable, being on the heat of the movement and all that.
this race never was for Lewis, he lost almost a pit stop time with tsunoda and then with perez, even if he had not pitted, rb and ferrari would have increase the pace and reach ham, the biggest victory for lewis was the 5 sec penalty for gasly, he would have finished p6 or even p7 with that late pit stop, but moreover, the biggest defeat of hamilton was penalizing, it would have been an easy 1-2 with verstappen or leclerc 3rd, now hamilton has another dilemma, he did not change the other components, will he be forced to penalize again or twice on the next races? will a component fail bringing a race to an end and scoring 0 points while verstappen is on points or podiums places? bro I tell you, this championship is the most exciting since 2012
Agreed
So nice said man!!! I am afraid that mercedes has found a way and its now the better car again… just look how much straight line speed they had. Could you share your opinion ?
Correctly said
@@anastasis_stef I think it depends from track to track.
@@anastasis_stef After British GP pendulum has swung a bit towards Mercedes. I mean Mercs were fast in britain, Hungary, Monza, Russia and now Turkey. Looking bad for RB
This shows much clearer how the decisions were made. Great communication between the team and Lewis, just unfortunate that their gamble didnt pay off. Looking at Bottas' lap time at the end, it was right on the verge of being dry tyre conditions.
And of course Hamilton got frustrated at the end, seeing his race fall apart. Thats only natural, thats what we want to see, people going for it and giving it their all.
he gets frustrated all the time tho
Had Lewis pitted when the team told him to he would have been in a better position to challenge Charles and Perez in the final laps.
not their gamble but Hamilton...Also He did not do a rest..So not fully a gamble..
@@shameerali2188 Well it's easy to say things like this when it's already happened.
@@alexandremp244 he didn't complaining in Russia italy belgium...
Lewis was told to pit earlier and he didn't so the team called him again and made him stop.
From my point of view he should have pitted when told. He is also a teamplayer cause at the end he did as they said, but it was a bit too late.
"I should have stayed out"
No Lewis, you should have pit when told.
Yep!
Nah, he should hv stayed out, so his tyres would explode and he would hv to pay a higher prize for his selfishness
Nope. Lewis was right
@@crysis0ne95 he wasn't, team made the right call, but he ignored it, which cost him a possible podium
Another possible scenario but all still just conjecture.
Definitely hamiltons fault for not coming in around lap 40. Almost lost himself places to gasly and norris but merc saved him from that emberassment.
Yea if he went in at 40 he prob would be on podium
And FIA, that 5 sec pen for gasly was bs, Perez was on the inside and he had nowhere to go
3:08: His inters were slicks when he finally pitted!
@@exclusiveeu264 yea I agree he was sandwiched
Moral of the story, listen to the strategy team when they tell you to come in. They employ an entire team of people to work this stuff out
Yeah no, it’s more nuanced than that. Teams get strategies wrong all the time, especially when track conditions are changing.
Barrichello in germany gp disagrees
Not always. Remember last year at this exact venue? Hamilton made the conscious decision to stay out even though others were faster on the new intermediates initially. (Probably part of why Hamilton wanted to stay out). However, the track this year is a lot different than last year, and Hamilton last year was definitely not pushing anywhere near as he did this year, so Hamilton was completely in the wrong in this year.
@@USMCLP yeah no, it's more nuanced than that. Drivers get strategies wrong all the time, especially when track conditions are changing. One has tons of data, the other has only a small fraction. there is a reason that every sport in the world has players AND coaches. the engineers/teams are the coaches in F1
@@Kevinschart So what? In this particular situation, the strategy was doomed regardless of whether Hamilton stayed out or not.
And since you’re trying to reverse my argument against against me, you want actual further nuance? The team has messed up the strategy for both drivers multiple times, look at France and Monaco this year. And Hamilton won the 2020 Turkish Grand Prix by consciously staying out the pit lane.
Lewis: We race as one, but you take the blame
yep. He did it again. "My gut told me to stay out, and thats what I should have done, but we work as a team and I did the best with what I received".
That is not what "We race as one" stands for but nice try.
@@byronlopez2189 its called sarcasm.
More like "I race as one". That's basically what he meant when he said "I work as a team"...
@@JoePCool14 "The only reason you dont like me is because you are racist" - Lewis, probably.
First Lando and now Lewis. We see what happens when drivers don't trust their engineers.
He should’ve stayed out
Except one is a young driver with little experience and one is a very experienced driver that knew what he was doing and would probably be p3
I don't know what is Toto talking about btw, before pitting he had more than 10 secs of advantage over Perez and had about 10 laps left from the race, so Perez would've needed to do 1 sec less a lap than Ham, so even if he caught him Leclerc wouldn't have been able to considering how much his pace dropped after Lewis pitting. P3 or P4 was pretty realistic and he is right he should've stayed out.
@@sprtrnds7880 Not to forget, Norris engineer asked "how do you feel about inters"(read boxing), Hamiltons engineer said "boxing for a new set of inters is the correct choice so, box box". I can understand Norris thinking the rain is gonna stop, or stay the same, did not want to risk the pit. Hamilton got told in perfectly plain english that the numbers said box alot earlier than when he eventually boxed. kinda makes me wish he stuck to his gut, cause i think he had used more of his tires than Occon at that point, and would have eighter limped to the pits loosing alot of time, or blown a tire.

honestly, F1 and F1 media is trying to make this bigger than it actually was.
No, people are complaining about Hamilton but they have only heard a few bits. Now they hear it all and they can build an opinion.
It just shows Hamilton was wrong to blame the team. Had he pitted on lap 42 when they called him he would have finished ahead of leclerc and could have fought Perez for the podium. Instead he thought he knew best. Had he stayed out he'd have lost the positions a anyway and risked a blowout

And how do you figure that was the wrong strategy? Ocon who did a no stop lost 17 seconds to Stroll in the last 5 laps... That's around 5.4 seconds per lap. And Ocon didn't even push like Hamilton in the beginning... Lewis would have been even lower had he not pitted before the final laps

The 2 times he thought that he knew what he was doing, but he'll have to learn to obey team orders.
It's a win or lose situation
nope, the team told him that he should pit on lap 38-42, which he can easily passed leclerc who's doing a late stop. and lewis loses 1.5 sec per lap to perez with 9 laps to go. and Ocon lose 4 sec on last lap to Gio, so without pitting he might be ended up behind Norris

HAMILTON: "I TOLD YOU"
Sounds like on the Hollywood Movies.
Seems if he boxed when they told him to originally, his tires would have been fine. Only one driver finished with the same intermediates he started with.., all the drivers had the same problem; when the inters were fresh they were slippery but got much better after several laps and offered better pace than the drivers on the older tires.
+ Ocon finished 57 laps only and barely made it
@@cherch +without pushing literally whole race
i agree, he was pushing hard and had he pitted when he was told initially, he could pass through the graining phase and could've challenged for a p4 of a p3.
“Work as a team” yeah right….”Valterri this is James, please let Lewis by” or “Valterri it is James, abort fastest lap”…..Lewis’s team consists of him and him alone. Valterri and the others do not matter.
It’s along time since Hamilton has been under pressure. He was on cruise the last season. Like his last proper rival was nico rosberg. After some time he’ll come back to old times
"I work as a team" yet throws the whole team under the bus
I do wonder how much time Lewis would have lost on the used tyres over the last 8 laps. He might have lost out to LeClerc in the end anyway considering Ocon lost 4 seconds to the Alfa on the last lap.
I was never quite going to dry enough for slicks
Had Lando’s Sochi adventure not occurred the race before, Lewis stays out and likely finishes third. But risk management to protect from the worst was the way to go, esp. with more rain threatening.
Hard agree, Lewis might have slightly better expected points had he stay out, but the downside is just to much to ignore. getting 5 place and being 6 points behind max is not end of the world but the getting 0 points and 2x point behind max for the very realistic chance of more rain/spin/collison defending/rapture or simple poor performance with a tire that is close to limit would be a disaster
Lewis : Max is under pressure.
Meanwhile lewis:
He never said that, another person that reads tabloids.
@@stephenweewoo Yeah he never said it like that. It was more like, _"I imagine he is under pressure, I know I was back when I fought for my first WDC!"_

Merc Race Strategists: Am I a joke to you?
The best fórmula 1 video ever!!! I really love it!!!
Don't let this distract you from the fact that F1 Media on Twitter was telling everyone not to make drama out of this, after themselves, making drama out of this.
this caused him the 8th title
No,Baku - Silverstone and Hungary are the only reason why he was still in the title fight.
As a Hamilton fan, this was hard to watch.
He is close to the complete driver, but, this race demonstrated his Achilles heel.
The team, have access to lap time information and "tyre drop-off" that he is simply not able to know, that's how they make the call.
team had all that last year in istanbul as well. if he'd pitted he would not have won the race
Finally a Lewis fan with an unclouded analytical mind.
it just confirmed to everyone what people have said since he won his first title though, he does drive well, but only when he is not under pressure. when he is, he starts firing shot from the clocktower usually not hitting their mark and then moaning about it later, Merc having to then take the wheel
Are you serious last year clearly shows that he should've stayed out, he was cathing verstappen even
lulu: Listen man I'm a 7 time world champ, I know everything.
"I work as a team" right. That's what it sounded like.
"I work as a team" and people wonder why many don't take him seriously
Things like these happen in racing all the time, it's more the media that hypes things to get more views. Both this race and last race with Lando, so much unnecessary drama and toxic fans(more like haters for a person than a fan for the sport) use this drama as fodder to spread their own hatred. Seen this many times with both Lewis and max fans.
No toxic drama here, just strategy. They just didn't pit when they had to 😁
@@baptistejungers1231 that's a blunder on the part of mercedes and ham. I'm talking about the reaction to that blunder that is dramatized. You should have seen the British press...😬
Haven't seen any toxicity actually with this. More intrigue.
How can you be so rude and disrespectful to the team that has literally gifted you 6 WDC
I see where your coming from, but it’s impossible to not get wound up whilst pulling 5Gs for an hour and a half and not getting the result you wanted
this guy's teamwork is incredible
Team work is everything, win or lose
Is it Me or does this feel like its Made by Netflix
Hahaha yeah I think the same
The strategists at Mercedes have been right far more often than Lewis has been. Would it have worked? We’ll never know.
The tone of voice in the ‘thinking time’ comment from Bono says a lot
one of those situations where doing nothing vs doing something doesn't make much difference and just shifts risks and opportunities around. There's no best decision and there shouldn't be I'm right you are wrong blame. It's painful to see a champion contender falling into this trap but I think playing safe (i.e. changing the tires) is the best interest in many aspects. Stay positive and carry on to the next race
That's the backdrop of always being in front and knowing nothing about strategy making,like rest of the field do efficiently.
Lewis: "i work as a team"
Team: box box box, new inters way to go
Lewis: I don't think i will 👀
Verstappen fanboy spotted.
@@Firebolt1729 hahaha for sure bro
As much as I’m a verstappen fan, Lewis’ decision to stay out would have been much better for him. If anyone can handle a no-pit stop race, it was him.
@@kartikeybhatia1423 he would have risked DNF for 1 extra position and most likely he would have still dropped down further down in the list just because his tyre life was gone and his pace was already dropping, Ocon did it but he did not push the tyres early on so much and he still lost places and alot of time in the last 10-5 laps
@@FaceFish9 100% F1 is a marathon not a sprint. you have to be conservative to stay in the fight. gambling will simply put you out the points. Lando learned this the hard way.
0:31 what a voicecrack hahaha and 1:50 as well hahahhahaha
Yeah xD

Had Lewis followed more Mercedes' calls than his gut feeling, he'd have won this championship
Well, Mercedes let him out on a 40 laps-old tyres in Abu Dhabi.........
Hamilton this time had a tough race, Perez didn't make his life easy, I realize he was upset.
Perez should be more upset he is 5th with the 1st or 2nd best car
It was majorly Lewis's fault, he should have pitted when the team told to do so
@@stephenweewoo yeah cry more
@@dmv3121 why would I cry, my favorite driver is fighting for the championship and has 100 wins and 7 championship. What is there to cry over 😂😂😂😂
@@stephenweewoo 😂 that guy thought you supported perez
Lewis has nobody to blame but himself.
seeing lewis angry makes me happy
MERCEDES will miss him badly in the future when Bottas got out, because Russel will not play 2 fiddle to Hamilton.
Hamitlon is a legend but he demands a lot of attention and always doubts if his team is right.
He hasn't no 100% trust in his teams. Actions speaks louder then words.;).
Lewis: Complaining about his tires all the time
Team: Box box
Lewis: Why did you bring me in to change my tires ?
he literally said he was fine
i didn’t like how he blamed his team when he thought he was smarter than the team and didn’t pit.
Tyres aside… those voice cracks are gold haha
I guess the DTS makers took over this account.
So intersting to hear the discussion. Lewis never used to be so rude to his engineer. Hope that changes.
How was he rude? I felt that is was a difference of opinion and frustration, not being rude but just my opinion
where was he rude? he disagreed. do you come in here when lando or max are cursing their teams. just shut up dude.
Happens , that's racing
Let this year be a successful start in the race for the dream, let the victory at the finish be sure.
I wish I would have watched this !
Showing this video is like rubbing a salt to the already salty Lewis Hamilton fanboys.
Writing such a comment is like punching the LH fans in the face
???
You should to watch max fans excuses when max lose...
This is just such a hateful comment. Grow up. Insulting people to push your imaginary narrative just lame.
Oh how the turntables
Tire strategy dilemma is fun to watch in middle of the race.
