In the lead-up to the start in Hungary, the team was aware of a sensor issue on Hamilton’s car but were unable to speak to the driver. And seconds later, Valtteri Bottas came perilously close to a jump start after reacting to an errant signal on his dashboard. Mercedes trackside engineer Andrew Shovelin said in a debriefing video posted on YouTube by the team that in the Finn’a case, the car had been…
