via F1iVasseur: ‘Staying on track made no sense’ for HamiltonDuring the Spanish Grand Prix, Ferrari made the decision to retire Lewis Hamilton after he experienced a brake problem that began on Lap 2. Despite a promising start, Hamilton's brake pedal became increasingly unreliable, prompting team principal Fred Vasseur to prioritize safety over the chance of a potential victory. Hamilton's retirement came after just seven laps, marking his first non-finish in ten months, despite having completed every lap of the 2026 season prior to this race. Vasseur acknowledged that Ferrari had a competitive car, as evidenced by Charles Leclerc's podium finish. However, he noted that the difficulty of overtaking on the track made track position critical. Hamilton expressed disappointment, believing the team had the potential to win, but ultimately, the decision to retire was made to avoid risking a more serious incident due to the brake issues.

via thejudge13.comHamilton admits defeat as Antonelli surges 101 points clearLewis Hamilton has acknowledged that Kimi Antonelli and Mercedes have a significant lead in the 2026 Formula 1 World Championship after his retirement in the Spanish Grand Prix.
