Lewis Hamilton overruled Ferrari pit calls during the Sao Paulo GP. The driver claimed he bypassed the team strategy because of a shortage of information as rain fell on the track.
Team principal Fred Vasseur connected the subsequent tyre struggles to poor track positioning. He remarked that drivers are out of it if they are not in the right spot. The Telegraph reported that Hamilton's move to ignore the team suggests a loss of faith in Ferrari's decision making.
