Lewis Hamilton highlighted similarities between his spin in qualifying for the Formula 1 Belgian Grand Prix Sprint and team-mate Charles Leclerc’s incident in Canada. Hamilton lost control of his Ferrari at the Bus Stop Chicane during SQ1, leading to an early elimination. He suggested that a small adjustment made to the SF-25, similar to what Leclerc did in Canada before crashing, may have caused the spin. Following the Sprint Race where he finished 16th, Hamilton noted having a new component fitted to his car, similar to Leclerc’s setup in Montreal. Despite the tough race, Hamilton remains optimistic about fine-tuning the upgrades and expects a stronger showing in the upcoming qualifying sessions. Leclerc, on the other hand, expressed less confidence in the car’s performance potential for competitive fights with rival teams.
