Has anyone found out what the Mercedes team did wrong to cause Lewis not to make it into Q3?

Interesting to note that yet again Russell didn’t seem to have any problems with the same Mercedes that Hamilton does nothing but criticise publicly.

Interesting to note, Hamilton is leading Russell in the championship and if you haven't heard Russell complain then you have cloth ears.

Nice one Albon. Happy the team of Williams is still alive and somewhat kicking too:).
For the rest, sad Hamilton, Perez and Ferrari.Comment posted by Jon, today at 15:40

Checo not only over a second off in Q3 but a full second behind in Q1 & Q2 also. With no obvious replacements in Alpha Tauri is it time to look elsewhere now for 2024 ???
