“Mercedes Is a Joke”: Toto Wolff & Co.’s No Show for Lewis Hamilton Yet Again Leaves Fans Fuming

Lewis Hamilton revealed that he lost over 2 kg at this year’s Singapore GP. All that a driver can ask for after such a gruesome race and hard-fought podium is to celebrate with the team. That’s where the problem arises. Toto Wolff and Co. didn’t show up to celebrate with Lewis Hamilton in Parc Ferme. Mercedes’ absence has left the fans fuming, and this isn’t the first time the Silver Arrows have done so this season. What are the fans saying?

Do you remember the chaotic Australian GP? The restart in the final laps and the red flag, the traffic jam caused by the Alpines crashing into each another? Lewis Hamilton braved everything and finished P2. However, when the seven-time world champion got out of the car, he realized that his team wasn’t there as he could be seen smiling but was heard saying, “Where the f**k is my team?” Alas, the same happened at the Singapore GP as well.

Carlos Sainz, Lando Norris, George Russell, and Lewis Hamilton were involved in a 4-way fight for the lead in the last couple of laps. Russell crashed on the final lap from P3, promoting the 7x champ to the podium. However, Hamilton must’ve had déjà vu from the Australian GP as there was no team member to celebrate the win and the Brit just sat by himself. Nonetheless, Ferrari and McLaren made sure that Hamilton didn’t feel alone.

“Get this man a new team”: Mercedes slammed as Lewis Hamilton posts lonely pictures 

All the images from Lewis Hamilton’s Singapore GP post show him being alone. While Hamilton is always appreciative of what the team does, Mercedes really did mess up this time by not being there. The photos suggest that Hamilton seems more disappointed than angry at his team. Fans slammed the Silver Arrows as they advised that the Brit deserves better. Let’s see how they reacted on Instagram.

“Ferrari and McLaren celebrating with Lewis and congratulating him because Mercedes didn’t show up for him 😭 PAIN”

“There’s no one to celebrate him oh god”

“get this man a new team pls”

“Your team was not there for you !!!!! You deserve better. Congratulations anyway”

“Where’s @Mercedesamgf1 left the 🐐 abandoned!!!”

“And yet that “team” was nowhere to be seen. Mercedes is a joke“

“@lewishamilton you deserved better from your team. So glad that @mclaren and @scuderiaferrari were there to support you and congratulate you.”

“Wonder why the team wasn’t there during to podium 😒”

“You thank the team yet they weren’t there to celebrate with you. They don’t deserve the podium. But you do. Mercedes has really forgot what you have done for their team.”

“Yeah, but the team didn’t celebrate with you, felt more like a cold shoulder. But well done congrats on your podium”

“You deserve more from Mercedes”

However, many believe that Mercedes actually rushed toward George Russell, who had a huge shunt into the barrier. Regardless, some team members must’ve shown up for Hamilton.
