Piastri’s Savage Dig at Hamilton Sparks Controversy After Singapore GP Practice Drama!

In a dramatic turn of events at the Singapore Grand Prix, Lewis Hamilton found himself at the center of a cheeky jab from rising star Oscar Piastri during the first practice session. The tension unfolded as Hamilton, racing for Ferrari, was spotted sluggishly maneuvering around the circuit, much to the frustration of McLaren’s Piastri, who was eager to redeem himself after a lackluster performance in Baku.

As the clock ticked down in FP1, Piastri’s hopes for a fast lap were dashed when he encountered Hamilton on the approach to Turn 1. The 2025 championship leader was forced to abandon his run on soft tires as the Ferrari driver drifted wide, kicking up dust and obstructing the racing line. With frustration boiling over, Piastri couldn’t resist taking a playful dig at the iconic Ferrari team over the radio, quipping, “Ferrari will invent mirrors one day, I hope.” This cheeky remark perfectly encapsulated the competitive spirit of F1, where every inch of the track counts.

However, Piastri wasn’t the only one feeling the heat. Fellow driver Gabriel Bortoleto from Sauber expressed his exasperation at Piastri’s driving style, exclaiming, “What the f**k is he doing?” as he navigated the middle sector behind the McLaren star. The incident sparked a heated debate amongst commentators and former drivers alike.

Jenson Button, the 2009 World Champion and Hamilton’s ex-teammate, weighed in, highlighting the nuances of the situation. He argued that Hamilton had strayed from standard protocol by not pulling to the inside of the track after completing his lap. “He should have seen Piastri coming sooner,” Button stated during Sky F1’s commentary, emphasizing the importance of adhering to the unwritten rules of the sport. But he also noted that despite the close proximity, Piastri had a clear opportunity to make his move into Turn 1.

When the dust settled, Hamilton finished the session in fourth place, just 0.364 seconds shy of the session’s fastest time set by Fernando Alonso. Piastri tucked in closely behind in fifth, merely 0.001 seconds off Hamilton’s pace and more than two-tenths ahead of his McLaren teammate and championship rival, Lando Norris.

As the 2025 season heats up, Piastri stands strong with a 25-point lead over Norris, ready to tackle the upcoming races head-on after experiencing his first retirement in Azerbaijan. With seven races remaining, the pressure is mounting, and every practice session could be pivotal in the battle for the championship.

The stage is set for a thrilling weekend in Singapore, where on-track rivalries and off-track banter are sure to keep fans on the edge of their seats. Will Hamilton adjust his strategy, or will Piastri continue to push the limits of what it means to be a contender in Formula 1? Only time will tell.
