Martin Brundle reacts to "bizarre" Lewis Hamilton Singapore GP strategy choice

Lewis Hamilton finished sixth at the 2026 Singapore Grand Prix after choosing not to pit under the virtual safety car, a decision that left him struggling with tyre degradation in the latter stages of the race. Hamilton had originally pitted on lap 18 for soft tyres, but when a virtual safety car was triggered by Lance Stroll's Aston Martin stopping on track, he ignored a call to pit again, ultimately costing him a potential podium alongside Ferrari team-mate Charles Leclerc. Former F1 driver and Sky Sports pundit Martin Brundle labelled the strategy choice as 'bizarre' in his post-race analysis.
