Hamilton baffled by Ferrari tyre-warm struggles

Lewis Hamilton was baffled by Ferrari's inability to sufficiently warm tyres during Formula 1's Dutch Grand Prix, affecting qualifying performance.

Lewis Hamilton expressed his bewilderment at Ferrari's SF-26 struggle to properly warm tyres during the out-lap at Formula 1's Dutch Grand Prix. The seven-time world champion and teammate Charles Leclerc both required two warm-up laps to reach the optimal tyre temperature at Zandvoort.

As a result, both drivers struggled in qualifying, finishing fifth and sixth respectively in Q3. This performance equaled their worst showing of the summer season, leaving Hamilton questioning the team's tyre management. tbzikra.com
