Senior Red Bull advisor Dr Helmut Marko has said he believes Mercedes made a crucial error by not pitting Sir Lewis Hamilton after the Safety Car was brought out in the dying stages of the 2021 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.  Mercedes decided against a pit-stop for Hamilton, informing the Brit that they would then lose track position to Verstappen if they opted to box and Red Bull decided to keep their driver out.
