Ferrari’s constant strategy blunders this F1 season has their rivals amused after Max Verstappen, Lewis Hamilton and George Russell shared a laugh at the Hungarian Grand Prix.

Charles Leclerc was once again cruelled by a poor strategy decision from Ferrari, who pulled in their lead driver for hard tyres when he was comfortable on mediums.

Leclerc’s preference was to stay out longer and complete a shorter final stint on the soft tyre, but was instead left to battle with the hards that struggled for grip.

In the end, he finished a distance sixth, his teammate Carlos Sainz was fourth, while Verstappen vaulted from 10th on the grid to claim the win.

The podium was rounded out by Mercedes pair Hamilton and Russell.

In the podium green room, the trio were shocked to learn Ferrari put Leclerc on the hard tyre — a decision they clearly found amusing.

Hamilton could be heard on the broadcast asking in surprise: “Ferrari were on the hards?”

Both Russell and Verstappen snickered, and simply replied: “Yeah.”

Leclerc was frustrated after the race, saying he was baffled by his team’s decision.

“I felt very strong and very comfortable on the mediums,” said Leclerc who led the race and looked likely to win before a pit-stop to switch unexpectedly to hard tyres.

“I wanted to stay out and I don’t know why I was called in. I was confused by that.

“I lost the race on the hard tyres and I don’t know why. We need to speak about this inside the team.”

He added: “Honestly, the pace on my side, I was pretty happy, the only thing is that everybody will remember the last part of the race where it was a disaster for me, especially the hard – that’s why I lost the race basically.”
