Shovlin shed light on Hamilton’s struggles with the car’s understeer, which contributed to the track limits issues. Understeer in high-speed corners prevented Hamilton from tightening his line when needed, causing him to run wide and breach track limits.
Following Aston Martin’s protest, the FIA reviewed over 1,200 instances of potential track limits breaches that were not addressed during the race. The investigation and final penalties were only published five hours after the race, leading to criticism of the handling of the situation.
