Hamilton was on 💯a slow lap on the run up the hill in the first sector in Q1

Ferrari race en🎃gineer Riccardo Adami told him that Verstappen was three seconds behind and on a “slow lap.”

Verstappen was, in fact, on a fast lap but was 𝓰impeded by Hamilton.

Hamilton has been hit with a three-place grid penalty for Sunday's race following the stewards' investigation. 🐈;

The 2021 F1 title rivals were seen𒉰 in parc ferme talki💦ng about it after qualifying.

Speaking to Sky Sports after the session, Verstappen didn’t blame Hamil⭕ton for the incident.

“At the time you see the car blocking you when you’re there at higဣh-s🎶peed it’s not nice let’s say it like that,” Verstappen said.

“I saw that the team told him I was driving slow when I was clearly d𝄹riving fast. It’s not Lewis’ fault. I quickly chatted to him about it. It’s very simple but of course it can’t happen. That’s the team’s mistake.

“If you look at the history of things, yes, but again it’s more the team’s fault but unfortunately in qualifying t♚hey’re normally quite strict with these things.”

Verstappen blames Red Bull’s low-speed weakness

I♛t was a disappointing qualifying session for Verstappen and 🦩Red Bull.

Verstappen is set to start Sunday’s race from fifth on the grid after qualifying over 0.7s off McLaren’s 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lando Norris.

Verstappen bla𓂃med Red Bull’s weakness in slow-speed corners for their underwhelming qualifying display.

“Mainly in the middle sector,” V🌳erstappen added. “It’s all the low-speed, mechanical grip corners we just didn’t have it. I couldn’t find more lap time compared to practice really.

“Every time I had to ride a kerb or throꦡw up a wheel in a c🌳ambered corner it didn’t grip up and it just meant we had issues. As soon as I went out in qualifying and I saw the lap time progression I knew we were not in that fight.”

When asked if it was♈ a surprise, he said: “Not really. I know that our car is not very good in low-speed anyway. I thiไnk this year already in qualifying it’s always been close between a lot of cars.

“If you’re lacking in feeling or balance in those low-speed cornꦏers that⛄’s not happening.”
