'We've got big problems' - Hamilton says Ferrari need 'serious talks'

Lewis Hamilton lamented the need for serious discussions between Ferrari's drivers after a collision during the Mexico City Grand Prix cost them a victory. The British racer secured third place, trailing behind Charles Leclerc, who took the lead from Hamilton on the opening lap and then lost second place to Max Verstappen. Verstappen went on to win the race, with Hamilton finishing second and Kimi Antonelli third, making him the youngest world champion in Formula 1 history.

Hamilton expressed his frustration, stating, "We've got big problems. Big, big problems." Leclerc attempted to diffuse tensions by saying he would speak with Hamilton, but acknowledged they both lost the corner. Hamilton emphasized the importance of teamwork, noting that if the Ferraris had worked together on the first lap, they could have been in a one-two position, controlling the race.

He added that Ferrari must take action to prevent similar incidents in the future. Team principal Frederic Vasseur expressed frustration with the incident, stating he needed time to digest the situation but would discuss it with his team. Verstappen, who capitalized on the battle, suggested Ferrari's internal fighting aided his victory.
