Lewis Hamilton says ‘totally wrong’ weather forecast cost Mercedes a podium spot
Lewis Hamilton said he “paid the price” for Mercedes’ strategy blunder at the start of Sunday’s Dutch Grand Prix.
Following a first-lap downpour in Zandvoort, Mercedes were too slow to put both Hamilton and team-mate George Russell on the intermediate tyres.
The poorly-timed stops left Hamilton and Russell – who was third on the grid – 13th and 17th when the order shuffled out.
