Yuki Tsunoda was furious with Lewis Hamilton after exiting Brazilian GP qualifying in Q1, with Hamilton not pleased with his session either.
Lewis Hamilton incurred the wrath of Yuki Tsunoda in qualifying for the Brazilian Grand Prix after the AlphaTauri driver pointed the finger at him for his Q1 exit.
Tsunoda was heard pinning the blame on Hamilton over team radio, repeating the seven-time World Champion’s name three times and calling for a grid penalty.The incident seemed to go unseen by the television cameras and Hamilton went on to qualify for fifth for Sunday’s race in Sao Paulo as Red Bull’s Max Verstappen qualified on pole position.
Hamilton, meanwhile, is aiming to close the 20-point deficit to Verstappen’s Red Bull team-mate Sergio Perez – who will start Sunday’s race from ninth after being caught out by yellow flags on his only Q3 effort – to claim second place in the Drivers’ standings. “The car was showing signs of decent performance, but we did seem to be a couple of tenths off the guys right at the very front. We made a few changes ahead of qualifying and it did seem to make the car a little nicer to drive. In general though, it wasn’t particularly fast.
