'disaster' after the Briton suffered an early exit in Dutch Grand Prix qualifying to leave him 13th on Sunday's grid.

You need to have one lap at the end and he didn't have it.'While Hamilton dropped out, team-mate George Russell went on to qualify third behind polesitter Max Verstappen and McLaren's Lando Norris.Speaking to reporters later on, Wolff added: 'Lewis had really good pace all weekend and it's really painful to see that because of traffic, you're not making yourself go into Q3, which he would have deserved.'I think also the impeding is pretty ugly to look at.
