Hamilton with mediocre qualifying, Wolff not happy

The verdict is as follows: Hamilton could have made the top two had he not been hampered. The car did not seem to be the problem, as teammate George Russell put his W14 in third place, which is also where he gets to start on Sunday. Hamilton will probably have to play a big catch-up to get close to his teammate.
