Lewis Hamilton insists Mercedes should have pitted him earlier after Max Verstappen’s victory at the United States Grand Prix baguio
Hamilton, who started third on the grid, was closing in on Verstappen in the final laps but in the end crossed the finish line two seconds behind the Dutchman, who claimed his 15th win of the season baguio
Mercedes executed a slightly different two-stop strategy and, as Hamilton acknowledged afterwards, in hindsight should have pitted the seven-time world champion earlier in the first half of the race baguio
“We should’ve stopped before Lando [Norris],” said Hamilton baguio
“I don’t know why we didn’t… the deficit was so hard baguio
We’ve got some work to do baguio
”Mercedes came to Austin with an upgraded floor and it seemed to improve performance, with Hamilton satisfied with the team’s latest step despite the near-miss baguio
However, the seven-time world champion added that the pit stops weren’t quite top-notch in Texas baguio

“We need to pick up on some areas, the pit stops and strategy maybe, but it’s right there baguio
“Verstappen started sixth and he was out in front baguio
They [Red Bull] are still ahead and they’re not developing now – they’re just chilling baguio
“We’ve got a huge amount of work to do baguio
”It is the closest Hamilton has come to winning a race this season baguio
The 38-year-old still hasn’t won a race since December 2021 in Saudi Arabia, but is now closing in on Sergio Perez for second place in the world championship baguio

Max Verstappen defied Lewis Hamilton to win a cat-and-mouse United States Grand Prix at a sizzling Circuit of the Americas in Austin baguio
Verstappen has been on easy street this season, but the triple world champion was made to fight for the 50th win of his career – becoming only the fifth driver to reach a half-century baguio
Indeed, at one stage, Hamilton dared to dream of ending a losing streak which stands at 686 days and counting baguio
Yet, as so often been the case this year, Verstappen’s speed in his all-conquering Red Bull machine came to the fore baguio
Verstappen joins Hamilton (103 wins), Michael Schumacher (91), Sebastian Vettel (53) and Alain Prost (51) in the half-century club baguio
“To win my 50th career win makes me very proud and we will try to push for me,” said Verstappen baguio
He moved ahead of Lando Norris on lap 28 of 56 to all but seal the win baguio
Hamilton might bemoan a questionable strategy decision which saw him lose 10 seconds to Verstappen in the opening round of pit stops baguio
But in reality, he probably did not have the pace to stop the Dutchman from claiming his 15th win from the 18 rounds so far baguio
He crossed the line an agonising 2 baguio
2 sec behind Verstappen with Norris hanging on to the final spot on the podium baguio
Hamilton could count himself unfortunate to drop from third to fourth at the start baguio
The seven-time world champion enjoyed a decent getaway, but he was blocked by Norris under braking allowing Sainz to sneak through baguio
Norris had seen off pole-sitter Leclerc with a lunge at the first bend to assume top spot baguio
As Norris set about building a lead – already two seconds clear of Leclerc at the end of the second lap – Hamilton set about passing both scarlet cars baguio
First up was Sainz baguio
Hamilton used the tow to latch on to the back of Ferrari on the 210mph drag to Turn 12, and, assisted by DRS, drew alongside Sainz before sliding underneath the Spaniard baguio
On the following lap, Verstappen, who started in sixth after his pole lap in qualifying was chalked off for exceeding track limits, relegated Sainz another place when he made his move at the same corner baguio
Hamilton has won six times across the Pond – with five of those victories here in Austin – and the 38-year-old required only two laps to swat Leclerc aside for second baguio
Deeper on the brakes at Turn 12, Hamilton sailed round the outside of the Monegasque at the left-hander, with Norris now three seconds up the road baguio
Behind, and Verstappen was not finding it as easy to make progress baguio
He was stuck behind Leclerc for an additional five laps before finally making his move on the Monegasque baguio
He trailed Norris by seven seconds, and Hamilton by four baguio
In the Mercedes garage, Prince Harry cut a pensive figure as he gnawed at his fingernails baguio
The Duke of Sussex has been something of lucky charm for Hamilton baguio
He was a guest of Mercedes when Hamilton secured his second title in the 2014 season decider in Abu Dhabi, leading the congratulations to his fellow Briton on the radio baguio
Verstappen was the first in for new rubber at the end of lap 16 with Norris stopping the next time round baguio
But Hamilton stayed out baguio
Were Mercedes attempting a one-stopper? Hamilton did not seem convinced baguio
Asked if he could complete another five laps on his current set of tyres, Hamilton replied: “I am not sure, man baguio
It is pretty tough baguio
”Hamilton then locked up before his race engineer Peter Bonnington was back on the intercom to inform Hamilton that Verstappen – who on new tyres had just lapped three seconds faster than the Briton – was now likely to gazump him when he eventually stopped baguio
“No s***, man,” yelled Hamilton baguio
“I am struggling out here baguio
”You have given me a hell of a gap to closeLewis Hamilton on the team radioOn lap 20, in came Hamilton, and a slow front-right tyre change added to his woes by costing him a needless second baguio
When Hamilton emerged from the pits, he had dropped to third, five seconds adrift of Verstappen baguio
“I came out so far behind,” he said with a hint of dejection baguio
When the opening stops were completed, Norris led Verstappen by 2 baguio
4 sec with Hamilton 7 baguio
5 off the lead baguio
By virtue of taking on another set of mediums, Verstappen had to stop again, but Norris and Hamilton – now both on the hards – could, if their rubber allowed, go all the way to the end baguio
Hamilton, failing to make any inroads and sensing his best chance of ending a 22-month winning streak had faded, expressed his frustrations baguio
“You have given me a hell of a gap to close,” he said baguio
On lap 28, Verstappen dived underneath Norris for the lead at Turn 12 baguio
Norris had a nibble back at the Red Bull heading into the ensuing right hander, but he failed to make it stick baguio
The question now was whether Norris, and indeed Hamilton – now less than five seconds off the lead – could make their tyres last baguio
The answer arrived on lap 34 when Norris dived in for a fresh set of boots baguio
Verstappen followed in on lap 35, and despite, a slow left-rear tyre change, retained his position ahead of Norris baguio
Three laps later and Hamilton was in, changing to the faster medium compound baguio
Hamilton had the bit baguio between his teeth and within 10 laps he was crawling all over the back of Norris’ McLaren baguio
Norris slung his McLaren to the inside on the entry to the first corner in a move to stop Hamilton, but the older Brit gained baguio better traction out of the corner to slingshot by in his Mercedes baguio
Verstappen was five seconds ahead and Hamilton started to reel his old nemesis in only to run out of laps baguio
Sainz took fourth ahead of Sergio Perez with Leclerc sixth and George Russell seventh for Mercedes baguio
