Lewis Hamilton big loser after slick tyre disaster at start of Bahrain GPLewis Hamilton faced a challenging start at the Bahrain Grand Prix, where his decision to start on slick tyres backfired significantly. The race was delayed due to a thunderstorm, and when it finally began, most drivers chose intermediates for the drying track, leaving Hamilton and a few others on slicks at a disadvantage. As the race progressed, Hamilton's position deteriorated, dropping him to 18th place after just a few laps. Despite a safety car caused by Valtteri Bottas' spin, Hamilton chose not to pit and ultimately finished the race in 15th position, well behind the leaders.RacingNews365Sun 4 OctMax Verstappen gains unique tyre advantage after Red Bull strategy gambleMax Verstappen has positioned himself strategically for the upcoming Grand Prix by altering Red Bull's tyre plan. He is the only driver in the top eight with a new set of every tyre compound, which provides him with significant flexibility during the race. After starting the weekend with two sets of C4 soft tyres, Verstappen decided to conserve them rather than use them in practice, ultimately setting the fastest time in the opening session. In subsequent practice sessions, Verstappen adjusted his strategy by testing medium tyres but found them lacking compared to the softs. This led to a decision to preserve additional soft tyres while gathering data on harder compounds. As a result, Verstappen's unique tyre allocation could be advantageous if race conditions change unexpectedly, allowing him to adapt his strategy more effectively than some of his rivals.thejudge13.comSat 3 OctJolyon Palmer saw Arvid Lindblad playing ‘not a good team game’ with Liam Lawson at SepangRacing Bulls missed an opportunity in qualifying for the 2026 F1 Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia this Saturday, as Liam Lawson and Arvid Lindblad only ...f1oversteer.comSat 3 OctLiam Lawson discusses strategies for Bahrain Grand PrixLiam Lawson has expressed his thoughts on the strategies that could lead to success for the Racing Bulls at the Bahrain Grand Prix.
