Oh Dear!

Maybe the clearance on Hamiltons front left spigot plunger thruster pin bearing housing oil retention seal containment ring was only set to 0.0098 mm.

Better luck next year.

I still think the whole F1 world wants to know why the team left him out on useless tyres for several very slow laps in Shanghai. That was where he lost the championship. In his position you must keep gaining a few points, then it becomes increasingly difficult for the other drivers.
