F1 commentator Martin Brundle believes it will be “painful reading” for Ferrari in the Italian media this week despite168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Lewis Hamilton’s fi🌺rst victory in red during the C🤪hinese Grand Prix weekend.

It was a mixed F1 ওweekend for Ferrari at the Shanghai International Circuit.

Hamilton dominated the sprint part of the weekendꦗ, having taken pole 🌜position on Friday.

The seven-time world champion won the 19-lap sprint race by over six seconds🍨 to take his first win for Ferrari.

The rest of the weekend didn’t go to plan for either Hamilton or 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Charles Leclerc.

Hamilton struggled for pace and f🔯inished sixth on track, whereas Leclerc only finishe𒆙d one place higher.

Ho💟wever, it was all in vain as both dri🌺vers were excluded from the race results due to technical infringements.

In his p♏ost-race F1 column for Sky, Brundle described Hamilton’s sprint race performance as “vintage”.

“The sprint was vintage Hamilton controlling the race from pole position, managing his tyre graining out front better than others, and tucking away very early doors hisꦜ first victory for Ferrari,” Brundle wrote.

“After the previous weekend in Melbourne, which he called “disastrous”, this was the perfect antidote, and remarkably the first time either he𝓡 or Ferrari had won a sprint.”

Ferrari DSQs “a miscalculation”

Hamilton, Leclerc and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Pierre Gasly were all excluded from the final race ౠresults in China.

Hamilton was ✅disqualified after the plank underneath his car was deemed too worn.

Leclerc aꦓnd Gasly’s cars were found to be underweight.

“The sting in the tail was the post-race disqualification of both Ferraris and Pierre Gasly’s Alpine. Leclerc and Gasly wer🍌e thrown out due to being marginally underweig🐟ht,” Brundle added.

“Rat🧸her like we saw last year in Spa with George Russell, a long run on one set of tyres uses up a few kilos of tyre tread. Also the race pace was strong and there were no Safety Cars, and so fuel usage was high, consuming more mass.

“Leclerc’s broken front wing was allowed to be replaced but he was still underweight. Which🤡ever way you cut it, that’s a miscalculation by the team to not leave enough margin for all circumstances.

“Hamilt𒆙on’s car was thrown out for running too close to the ground and overly wearing away the legality skid block u♓nderneath by half a millimetre. This rule is in place to stop teams running these ground-effect aero cars too low to gain performance but then trashing super expensive floors every day.

“Especially 🦩in the Italian media, it will be painful reading for Ferrari this week despite the sprint victory.”
