#F1 | Lewis Hamilton opens up about being told he was ‘wrong’ by Mercedes in the new season of Drive to Survive:
Lewis Hamilton told Netflix: “I remember complaining to the team and being like, look, we have to make these changes, otherwise this is the trajectory we’re going to go on and this is where we’re going to end up. Please, please do something about it.”
“I remember they said, like, we know what we’re doing, you’re wrong. And that was definitely an interesting moment. I was like, okay, I’ll step back, don’t want to step on anybody’s toes. Then when we got into the season, then we spoke again [they said] ‘oh, maybe you were right.”
🚨 | Ferrari are pleased with today's running.
Tyre degradation seems more controlled, and the drivers are happy with handling.
Ferrari has no intention of raising their engine modes until next week.

🚨| From the onboards, it seems that Ferrari’s focus on a stronger front has paid off, however the rear appeared a little light.
Verstappen’s consistency was excellent, with signs of a lot of downforce.
Mercedes, Ferrari, McLaren seem close.
Still very early though.
🚨 | The independent investigation into team boss Christian Horner appears to be one of major proportions.
The female employee who came forward in December 2023 at the billion-dollar group's headquarters in Austria accuses Horner of sexually transgressive behaviour.
The employee handed over text messages, which would show this, to the external lawyer investigating the Horner case. The Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf obtained these messages.
From the text messages between Red Bull's female employee and Horner, viewed by De Telegraaf, It emerges that Horner sent sexually oriented messages to the employee regularly and over a considerable period of time.
It is also clear that Horner did everything he could to keep the matter under wraps. In the weekend before the first publication in De Telegraaf - after he was confronted with the investigation into cross-border behaviour on February 2nd and asked for a response - his lawyers sent a letter to the lawyer assisting the female employee within 24 hours.
In it, the Horner camp offered a settlement for a whopping £650,000, which is just over €760,000.
The allegations regarding Horner's sexually transgressive behaviour are now also known to several, other key players in the Formula 1 world.
