Lewis Hamilton was told by his team to come in for a set of new intermediates towards the end of the
Turkish Grand Prix. The Brit thinks it was unnecessary and when he hears that
Esteban Ocon finished the race on the set of tyres he started on, he is sure the pit stop was a mistake.
Hamilton not happy with pit stop
At the French
Canal+ Hamilton is told that Ocon finished the race on one set of tyres. The seven-time world champion reacts surprised and doesn't know exactly what to say:
"Did he really do that?""If Ocondid it, then I could do it, for sure," Hamilton then says. He himself was brought in for a fresh set of intermediates with less than ten laps to go. With that Hamilton lost two positions and had to hope that
Pierre Gasly would not try to overtake him.
