George Russell and Lewis Hamilton made it a Mercedes one-two ahead of title-chasing Max Verstappen in a soggy second practice on Friday for the Japanese Grand Prix.
Christian Horner has suggested Formula 1’s budget cap row has been “designed to be a bit of a distraction” for Max Verstappen’s expected second title. Last week, reports claimed two teams went over the limit of the $145 million budget cap with Red Bull and Aston Marin allegedly breaking the rules. Ad Lewis Hamilton says the outcome of last year’s championship would have been different if Mercedes spent “300,000 more” on car developments.
Lewis Hamilton says he plans on “staying longer” in Formula 1, hinting he will sign a new contract and won’t retire from the sport any time soon. Hamilton’s current deal, which he signed in February last 2021, expires at the end of next year. Ad The seven-time world champion will be 38 years old in January, but has seen Fernando Alonso still be competitive in F1 into his forties, with Hamilton himself showing no signs of slowing down despite not being in title contention this season.
While wrapping up the 2022 Formula 1 title in Singapore was always going to be tough, Max Verstappen has a much better chance of sealing the deal in Japan.
Alpine's Fernando Alonso set the fastest time in a wet opening practice session for the Japanese Grand Prix on Friday.
SUZUKA, Japan : Alpine's Fernando Alonso set the fastest time in a wet opening practice session for the Japanese Grand Prix on Friday.
Veteran Fernando Alonso went quickest on Friday in first practice for the Japanese Grand Prix, with Max Verstappen sixth-fastest as he looks to clinch his second straight world title this weekend. Two-time world champion Alonso braved steady rain at the Suzuka circuit to streak round in 1min 42.248sec for Alpine -- 0.315sec quicker than second-placed Carlos Sainz of Ferrari. Verstappen can claim the title on Sunday if he wins the race with the fastest lap, no matter what his rivals do, but he put in only a short stint in first practice.
Seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton said Thursday that any team breaking Formula One's cost cap must be punished, after governing body FIA pushed the findings of an investigation back to next week. FIA had been due to reveal Wednesday if any team had breached last season's $145 million budget cap, but released a statement instead saying the report would be delayed until Monday, October 10. Rival teams claimed at last weekend's Singapore Grand Prix that two teams, thought to be Red Bull and Aston Martin, had exceeded the cap, which was introduced last season to make racing more competitive.
