MAG should be suspended already. Dude was a joke in Miami.
HAM should be calling the FIA president and complaining MAG wasn't suspended because he is black. I mean if Alonso can do it on nationality, why can't he do it on race. MAG has become a clown out there.
"All the penalties were well deserved - no doubt about it" - - - Magnussen told SkySports F1"
I started using these stupid tactics which I don't like doing, but at the end of the day I did my job as a team player and Nico scored his points because I got that gap for him so Lewis and Tsunoda couldn't catch him.
"Not the way I like to go racing at all, but it was what I had to do today."
Weird coincidence with Lewis going to NYU. I saw him in Manhattan right around Met Galla time a few years back. He was walking by Washington Square Park with his peeps. NYU is right there.
There were a couple of articles written about what he does with his hands at the start. If I’m remembering correctly, he said it helps him actuate the hand clutch.
If you Google “Lewis Hamilton start procedure” the articles might come up.
I think it’s actually because he inadvertently triggered a specific button or mode a couple of times at the start and it caused him to bog down; hence keeping his left hand up high on the steering wheel from a standing start.
‘Because what you don't want to do is accidentally go down a gear so If you put your hand there, you can't go down a gear. ' One of the suggestions for Hamilton's decision is that he favours a smaller gear shifting paddle to that of his fellow drivers and could be more prone to this issue’
One article mentioned Rosberg said the start is so violent that it was easy for Hamilton to accidentally trigger a downshift due to the smaller gear shift lever he uses
why does he wrap his left hand over the steering wheel during starts and restarts?
He does it all the time, as if he is covering up some magic juice button or something.
