Martin Brundle offers 'curious' Lewis Hamilton analysis when re-watching Miami GP

Martin Brundle made a worrying point about Lewis Hamilton after watching back his display at the Miami Grand Prix last weekend.

Hamilton was back on the track at the Miami International Autodrome on Sunday, where Kimi Antonelli picked up his third win of the season.

McLaren took the final two spots on the podium, with Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri coming second and third respectively.

Mercedes still lead the way in the drivers' and constructors' rankings thanks to the performances of Antonelli and George Russell, with Ferrari in second on 110 points after two podiums from Charles Leclerc.

Seven-time world champion Hamilton has one podium to his name in an improved 2026 campaign after a disastrous first season at Ferrari.

He finished seventh at the Miami GP but climbed to sixth after Leclerc's 20-second post-race penalty. Hamilton was severely impacted by contact with Franco Colapinto on the first lap and his car suffered damage - ultimately leading to the 41-year-old flipping him off.

After an ultimately disappointing showing, F1 legend Brundle gave his honest view in his latest column for Sky Sports.

Analysing the latest race, Brundle said: "Lewis Hamilton would finish a curiously uncompetitive sixth in his Ferrari, leaving Franco Colapinto in seventh for what was his most convincing F1 event to date and very timely for him.

"Williams had a much stronger race with both drivers in the points and on the lead lap with Carlos Sainz in ninth and Alex Albon on 10th. That'll be a relief for the team to an extent.

"And so, we had five different leaders with many lead changes, and two key overtakes in the final two corners of the race. It was a very timely, great show with a big audience, and I have no doubt the teams will continue to converge as they finesse and further understand these regulations. Bring on Montreal."

Hamilton planning a new approach

Reflecting on the race, Hamilton said that he was in "no-mans land" in Miami and couldn't do anything about it. However, he hinted that he will change things up at next weekend's Canadian Grand Prix in Montreal, where he won his first ever F1 race.

"Obviously, it's not a good weekend at all, no-man's land in both races," he told Sky Sports F1.

"Particularly with the damage, there was nothing I could do. Really unfortunate because the team worked so hard so to come away with so few points… we have to move on from here

"I'm going to have a different approach for the next race. The way we're preparing at the moment is not helping. We'll see how that goes for the next race."
