Ferrari F1 comms blunders: 'Hamilton asked a really easy question!'

Why couldn't Lewis Hamilton get a clear answer to an "easy question" that could have prevented him from pursuing a disastrous strategy at the Singapore Grand Prix?

Ferrari's communication issues date back to the days of Sebastian Vettel and show no signs of being resolved. Mark Hughes and Bryn Lucas explain what it is about the team that means it can't convey clear messages, leading to untrusting drivers, bad decisions and missed opportunities.

They discuss whether Red Bull has got its mojo back. After criticism from former team boss Christian Horner, Max Verstappen has won two grands prix – plus the Singapore sprint. Is Mercedes now on the back foot?

It raises the question of who would win in a straight fight between Verstappen and Kimi Antonelli, and whether the Red Bull driver is even more formidable without a title fight to worry about.

We also answer your questions on some team's mysterious rear wing triangles and whether Ferrari bosses are legally obliged to interfere with the running of its F1 team.

Plus: Mark's take on the news that F1 will return to Africa with a grand prix in Rwanda.
