Formula 1 fans have urged Lewis Hamilton to 'give up' after a dismal weekend at the Hungarian Grand Prix.

On Sunday, the European double header came to an end at the Hungaroring.

McLaren dominated the race again as Lando Norris took the chequered flag ahead of teammate Oscar Piastri and Mercedes driver George Russell.

Further down the grid, there was more agony for seven-time F1 world champion Hamilton as he finished in 12th place, a long way off teammate Charles Leclerc, who came home fourth.

Prior to the race, the 40-year-old shocked fans by telling Ferrari to replace him after a dismal qualifying session.

After the Grand Prix, Hamilton appeared to double down on his comments.

On the back of a horrible weekend for Hamilton, a full transcript of his team radio exchanges with race engineer Ricardo Adami has emerged.

There were snippets such as 'No pace to overtake', 'I just lost five seconds', 'How did I lose so much ground' and 'Really sorry about the weekend', which summed up Hamilton's Ferrari career so far.

Ever since the Brit's first race with Ferrari, questions have been raised over the chemistry between him and Adami.

The pair have often had radio exchanges which have been described as 'frosty' and 'confusing', and the Hungarian Grand Prix was the same.

During one exchange, Adami stated: "Piastri behind. Solid blues to Piastri behind. Okay, good."

Hamilton asked: "Where am I, exactly?"

He then added: "Be really helpful for you to give us an idea obviously on how many laps."

Adami replied: "We are P16 with a big tyre delta, come back to a potential P7, 26 laps to go."

After taking the chequered flag, a dejected Hamilton said: "Really sorry about this weekend guys, for losing you points." You can see the entire transcript between Hamilton and Adami here.



Reacting on social media, one fan said: "One has to wonder how it’s possible to make a car that somehow struggles with both warming and cooling."

Another tweeted: "Brutal race for him."

A third fan added: "I feel so sorry for him."

Someone else wrote: "Lewis, time to give up that Ferrari dream."

A fifth commented: "Ferrari should just give up if they have to tell their drivers to lift and coast from lap 3."

What did Ferrari say about Lewis Hamilton's Hungarian GP?

Speaking about Hamilton's race weekend, Ferrari team boss Fred Vasseur said: "I don’t need to motivate him. Honestly, he’s frustrated, but not demotivated.”

“Yeah, he’s demanding. But I think it’s also why he’s seven-times world champion. He’s demanding with the team, with the car, with the engineers, with the mechanics, with myself as well. I can understand the frustration from Lewis, that's normal, and he will come back."

F1 will return at the end of the month with the Dutch Grand Prix, which will take place at the Circuit Zandvoort.
