💬 'I don’t pay much attention to what is said by that guy' Seven-time F1 world champion Lewis Hamilton dismissed Christian Horner's suggestion that Mercedes got their strategy wrong at the BritishGP
following an intense fight to the flag after most of the leading runners pitted for soft tyres during a late Safety Car.
"He went onto the hard tyre on lap 33 and I actually thought he was going to go on to the soft, because that would have made it much easier for him to make the offset in grip.But Hamilton dismissed Horner’s claim and believes Mercedes ultimately made the right calls given the circumstances at the time.“I don’t really care! I don’t pay much attention to what is said by that guy,” Hamilton laughed when asked what he made of Horner questioning Mercedes’ strategy.
“The question is: could I have kept going and then shortened my soft tyre run? But in hindsight it’s always positive.”Hamilton sure Mercedes can win a race in 2022 “It was really positive for us as a team to start to see a little bit of consistency, particularly on my side, and to see us making progress,” said the seven-time world champion."That was definitely not the way we like to think but it was that feeling that ‘Jesus, there’s a long, long way to catch everyone up’. But definitely hugely encouraging.
