Lewis Hamilton skips second pit stop at Singapore GP, raises trust concerns

Lewis Hamilton's decision not to pit during the Singapore Grand Prix is under scrutiny, as it highlights potential trust issues with Ferrari's strategy. Hamilton was called in during a virtual safety car but opted to stay out, eventually finishing sixth after struggling on old tires. His teammate Charles Leclerc, who pitted, secured second place. Former strategist Bernie Collins speculated that Hamilton's choice indicates a lack of confidence in the team's calls, echoing sentiments from last week’s race in Malaysia. In contrast, Jenson Button defended Hamilton's decision as strategic, emphasizing a desire to overtake his teammate rather than follow team orders.
