Speaking on, Schꦬumacher - who won seven races in his F1 career - called for Mercedes to get involved from a m꧑anagement perspective.

“Lewis gives in too early, simply doesn’t give George enough space,” he said.  “The Mercedes 🌊were strong, they t𒊎hrew away good points. 

“There’s a bit of work to be done between the two🧸 now. You can deal with each other either way, t𝓰he team has to intervene now.”

“There’s not that much to discuss,” he added. “It’s relatively one-sided. “Lewis tried it on the outside because he had the soft tyres.&nꦏbsp;

“He was very fast, had 🤡a lot of grip. But then he misjudged something, he pulled in a little too early. ✱;

“The mistake wasn’t a big one꧋, but it ha⛎d big consequences. Of course, something like that shouldn’t happen.”
