Hamilton's race ruined by early pit stops
F1 Grand Prix, GP Malaysia, Sepang International Circuit
A massively disappointed Lewis Hamilton believes that pitting too early in the opening stages of this afternoon's Malaysian Grand Prix has caused him difficulties to keep his second place. The Briton finished in seventh place.
Hamilton said to the BBC: "I think through the race my tyres went off. We pitted too early, then we had to pit earlier, all the time we were pitting before everyone and my tyres were just finished at the end.
"It's one of those days and you have to take it on the chin and move on. This is racing, I guess. I started second and did everything I could to keep up, and I don't really have much to say."
