Sky presenters tout theory for why Hamilton lost out to Russell last year

Lewis Hamilton took a whole year to get over the 2021 F1 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix controversy, according to Sky TV presenters.

“It took Lewis over a year to get over Abu Dhabi 2021,” Martin Brundle said.“I think George has been through a difficult time where it hasn’t paid off for him, as such.

“But you have to say at the moment - Lewis has the upper hand in that duo, in terms of the results and the speed that he’s showing. But they are so close, those two.” Naomi Schiff agreed: “No driver likes to be beaten by their team-mate. But last year, I don’t think that was on the top of Lewis’ mind.

“They both came into that season psychologically in very different places. Lewis coming from Abu Dhabi 2021 and George just coming out of the Williams into the big team.
