Marko makes F1 title admission as Hamilton details Mercedes’ woes – RacingNews365 Review
Red Bull advisor Helmut Marko admitted that the team no longer has a chance of winning the F1 constructors’ championship this year after being out-scored by McLaren in Baku, where Oscar Piastri claimed victory. Lewis Hamilton had to “yank” his steering wheel throughout the Azerbaijan Grand Prix and managed to salvage two points starting from the pit lane due to a late power unit change. Lando Norris criticized those “talking nonsense” about his poor qualifying result in Baku, marking his worst performance of the year. Toto Wolff acknowledged that Mercedes put Lewis Hamilton through a “race of misery” in Baku, where the team knew starting from the pit lane would be challenging after a power unit change. Discussions have been ongoing between F1 teams, FOM, and the FIA about the possibility of a rookie sprint race after the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, with a clearer framework emerging during the Azerbaijan weekend. McLaren’s team principal Andrea Stella praised the team’s significant progress as they took the lead in the F1 constructors’ championship, surpassing Red Bull.
