Lewis Hamilton set the fastest lap of the race on the final lap of the Mexican Grand Prix, but his time has come under scrutiny.
Lewis Hamilton’s blistering pace to set the fastest lap in the Mexican Grand Prix suggested there was way more pace in the Mercedes in Sunday’s race.
Former title-winning Williams team manager Windsor was left surprised by Hamilton’s sudden turn of speed, suggesting that he could have gone faster much earlier in his final stint., he said: “Lewis set the fastest lap that will have irritated Max a bit because he always loves to set fastest lap and, at that point, he had it – and Lewis set it on the last lap.
“It’s a cliché to say: ‘Well, where did that come from?’ – but it has to be asked because I suppose you would say in the debrief afterwards when it’s all quiet: ‘21.3, Lewis! What were you doing ?’ “So it was a little bit of an unanswered question there I suppose this is the way to put it: if Lewis had known that the tyres were going to last to the point where he could do a 21.3 on the last lap, how much quicker would he have driven – how much more would he have pushed the tyres – over the previous 12 laps?
