Lewis Hamilton left in slow lane as wheels fall off for McLaren

10.07.11

Martin Whitmarsh, the McLaren team principal, was forced to defend his position on Sunday night after two more blunders had robbed Lewis Hamilton and Jenson Button of the chance to get on the podium in the British Grand Prix , which was won by Fernando Alonso.

Button was forced out of the race at the start of the 39th lap after a pit stop went wrong. He left the pits with his right front wheel still loose and had to retire – McLaren were later fined €5,000 (£4,400) for an unsafe release.

McLaren also sent out Hamilton with a too-light fuel load and had to instruct him to slow down in the closing laps in order to finish the race. He had to battle to hold off Felipe Massa before finishing fourth.
