168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton and his new race engineer Riccardo Adami exchanged frustrated radio messages at the F1 Australian Grand Prix.

Hamilton was 10th on his Ferrari debut, two places behind new teammate 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Charles Leclerc, on a sub-par opening race of the campaign fo♔r Ferrarꦇi.

But it was the tone of his radio cꦫonversations with Adami - 🔥a former race engineer for Sebastian Vettel and Carlos Sainz - which caught the eye.

Hamilton said via radio: “Let me know where I am slow. Struggling with driveability. The c✃ar is snappy.”

The reply came: “Turns 11 and 12.”

Adami then later advised an 🐟engine setting: “You can use K1 when you are close.♐”

Hamilton replied: “Leave me to it, please.”

Adami said again: “K1 available.”

Hamilton said: “Yes, I know. Leave me to it, pleas🐽e.”

Hamilton reported a “los꧒t gear sync” before responding sharply to more Adami advice: “Please leave it! Just leave me to it with the DRS. It’s not an issue.”

Adami 🍌came back later with: “Try to hold the K1. Just for practice. I know it’s difficult.”

Hamilton replied: “I’m not close enough! I’m not close enough꧅. When I’⛎m close, I’ll do it.”

Hamilton later asked via radio: “I thought you said it wasn’t going to rain much? We just missed a b🅠ig opportunity there.”

Adami said: “Understood.”

Lewis Hamilton told to 'build bond' with Ferrari engineer

Sky Spor🦹ts’ Karun Chandhok assessed: “One thing that came from the radio messages that we played was that he and Adami need more time to understand how much communication Lewis wants, and what type.

“There were a number of times whღere he would say ‘tell me som🐈ething’, then they would give him information, then he’d say ‘too much, leave it to me’.

“They just need to build that bond. Race drivers and their engineers will spend mor꧒e time together than with their partners throughout the season!

“But they are still at Round 1. They need to find their𝓡 feet, and understand. And maybe have a conversatio💙n before China.

“I’ll be intere🔯sted to hear the radio in 𒅌China to see if it’s different.

“Have a conversation to say ‘I need this, this and this🍸, I don’t need you to hold my hand’.

“When the adrenaline is pumping, it’s🐓 frustrating. But keep per🥂spective.

“They are figuring out how to commuಞnicate. Adami has probably communicated that way with Carlos Sainz for three years. He’s just ca꧋rrying on what he feels is natural.

“But he’s dealing with a different animal now. Lewi✤s needs a diffe🉐rent type of communication.

“I bet if we had access to the 2013 Mercedes r✤adio, he and ℱBono wouldn’t have been flowing as they were years later.”

The wet conditions caused mayhem at the F1 Australian Grand Prix, including for second-place Oscar🍷 Piastri who spun and cost himself a podiu𝄹m.

Ferrari’s strategy came under scrutiny too - Leclerc and Hamilton were left out in the wet with sl🍌ick tyres.

“They took a risk,” Chandhok said. “They thought Charles would be sho🌞rt, and the drivers could survive on those tyres, and they’d be fine.

“As it transpired, that wasn’t the case.

“Lewis came oᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚn the radio and said ‘it’s too dangerous, we have to stop’.

“They underestimated ho🌄w much water would be o♍n the track. Disappointing for them.

“Hamilton haꦰsn’t gone to Ferrari to get one point. He’ll be 🐲okay with it, but there is a lot to learn.”
