π F1 EXTRA: Contrasting Hamilton's joyous run in Senna's car with his miserable Mercedes sign-off
Added 2024-11-08 09:55:55 +0000 UTCOn this episode of F1 Extra, exclusively for you, our valued members, Edd Straw is joined by Glenn Freeman and our Brazilian colleague Lito Cavalcanti for more reflection on last weekend's race in Brazil, which proved a weekend of mixed emotions for Lewis Hamilton.
The guys begin by reflecting on Hamilton's joyous pre-race run in Ayrton Senna's McLaren MP4/5B, with Lito discussing its significance for Brazilian fans. They then move on to discussing how that moment contrasted with the rest of Hamilton's weekend, as the seven-time world champion limps towards the end of the season - and the end of his historic spell with Mercedes - in a car he's struggling to drive.
And of course, this wouldn't be an episode of F1 Extra without Edd and co tackling a load more of the questions you sent in after Sunday's race. It was another great batch, so we tried to get through as many as possible!
Note: There was some interference on Lito's mic for some of this episode. We apologise for that and hope it doesn't spoil your enjoyment. It's been a long season for our podcast kit too!

Regarding the Bottas question: Would Red Bull have taken him for 2021? He had experience as a second driver next to an all time Great, Information about Mercedes and the Qualifying pace Perez lacks. Or would Toto as his Manager blocked that?

2024-11-08 13:53:47 +0000 UTCDo you think Lewis' performance has decreased since he had Covid? Just finished Drive to Survive for the 2nd time and the timing seems to fit. Thanks.
