Lewis Hamilton was hoping to put his Silverstone frustration to bed in Hockenheim today by securing a pole position, but all his hopes went down the drain, as the Brit had to bow out of qualifying because of a hydraulic issue.
Hamilton did run a little wide, triggering an issue with the car, and ultimately a hydraulic issue meant that Hamilton couldn’t take his car back to the pit lane.
Hamilton was asked to stop from the Mercedes team because there was a ‘PU’ risk.
The Mercedes main man was still trying to push his car into the pit lane, or as far as possible and the marshals came to his aid, but in the end, he just had to give up, because there was no way he could get his Mercedes back to the pits.
Lewis was visibly distraught after what had transpired on the race track, kneeling around his car and venting out his frustration.
This is how twitter reacted:
Can Hamilton recover from this setback tomorrow?
