LEWIS HAMILTON and Max Verstappen mocked Ferrari for their bizarre tactics after the Scuderia endured another dismal race in Budapest. But as the race wore on, Leclerc was told to pit and his team made the strange decision to put the hard tyre on his car. Verstappen then breezed past the Monegasque driver as Leclerc struggled for grip – with the Ferrari man eventually finishing down in sixth. Verstappen won the race, with Mercedes duo Hamilton and Russell coming home second and third respectively. Speaking in the video, a confused Hamilton asks: “Ferrari were on the hards?”. Verstappen and George Russell then looked at each other and laughed, before the reigning world champion replied: “Yeah!”. Hamilton, Verstappen and Russell weren’t the only drivers baffled by the decision to use the hard tyre. And Leclerc himself came out after the race to question his team’s bizarre tactics. Ferrari’s in-race tactics have repeatedly cost them points so far this season.
