Lewis Hamilton feels Formula 1 teams should be prevented from runℱning with unknow😼n fuel loads during practice sessions in order to provide both fans and rival teams “a clearer picture”.

On Friday the Mercedes driver comfortably topped both pr𒅌actice sessions at the French Grand Prix but accepted his advantage couldn’t be accurately measured with rivals teams running var𓄧ying fuel loads.

Ferrari has consistently been slower in terms of outright single lap pace before stepping up it✃s speed in qualifying𒅌 and at Paul Ricard both Kimi Raikkonen and Sebastian Vettel were around one second slower than Hamilton, while in qualifying the gap shrunk to four-tenths of a second between Vettel and pole-sitter Hamilton.

As a result, Hamilton has asked for a r♕ule tweak to see all F1 drivers run with the same fuel loads to provide clarity for both teams and🌸 fans.

“It🅘 is kind of frustrating as Ferrari always are one second off so they are on different fuel,” Hamilton said at Paul Ri♔card. “Everyone is on different fuel levels so it is easy to come out of today without knowing where everyone is.

“They should change the rules, another rule they should change, is make everyone use the𓂃 same fuel loads because then everyone h♚as a clearer picture.

“It must be confusing for the fans because you don’t know why we are the quickest or why the Ferraris are that far off and they don’t care about the fuel loads so maybe that is something t🀅hey can🉐 put in for the future. I don’t really know where we stand pace-wise.”

All F1 teams are permitted to run any fuel loads during every free practice session while the♚ amount of fuel each car runs is a closely-guarded s🧸ecret in order to not reveal its optimum pace before qualifying and the race.
