Le papier peut en conséquence être pris au sérieux.

Voici ll’article :

Jun.1 – Seven time world champion Lewis Hamilton hit reverse gear this week after criticising the FIA for delaying the start of Sunday’s Monaco GP.

« We are Formula 1 drivers so rain is not a good enough reason, » said the Mercedes driver.

But when he copped online criticism for his anti-FIA stance, Hamilton denounced it as « absolute rubbish ».

« Could we have started the race when it was meant to start? Probably but then they would have had to stop it soon after.

« Please don’t use me to create a negative narrative, » the 37-year-old said.

However, Hamilton is in good company in questioning why the race had to be delayed for so long – after Monaco officials denied it had anything to do with a power failure.

« What those responsible did in Spa 2021 and now in Monaco in the rain is fooling the people, » German racing legend Hans-Joachim Stuck told Servus TV.

« They are supposedly the best drivers in the world and they’re there on the start line – they should be able to drive in such conditions.

« The opportunity that Stefan Bellof used back in 1984 in the rain at Monaco doesn’t come along very often. Starting behind the safety car is the worst nonsense.

« Most drivers want to prove themselves, especially in Monaco. I do not understand this approach of the race management at all, » Stuck added.

Even Emanuele Pirro, a former F1 driver who then became an FIA steward, also couldn’t understand the race directors’ decision last weekend.

« Safety is very important, » he told Autosprint, « but we are talking about the best drivers in the world behind the wheel of very strong cars.

« I would have let the race start on time and only interrupted it if the conditions were really extreme. »

Hamilton’s view is also backed by current rival Pierre Gasly, who said of the FIA: « I don’t think they should question our abilities. That’s our job.

« When things get difficult, we’re also challenged – our abilities are challenged. That’s exciting, » said the AlphaTauri driver.

And former Mercedes boss Norbert Haug told Sky Deutschland: « The spectator is saying ‘My car drives in the rain but the greatest, fastest cars and drivers can’t?

« Formula 1 would be well advised to find ways to stop this. I’m sure it’s on Ross Brawn’s list. »
