Mercedes apologized to Lewis Hamilton for what they admitted was the strategic error that cost him the victory at Monaco GP in 2014. Mercedes F1 boss Toto Wolff said: "The answer is we got the maths wrong. That one goes on the team and I apologize. He's a great leader and a great driver. I am sure he will understand sometimes we make errors."Rosberg set the fastest time in his first run during the Q3 and elected to leave the pits, being first of Mercedes duo on the track, Rosberg set a slow first sector on his final lap, followed by a lock up and using the escape road at Sainte Devote. The incident brought out yellow flags that forced Hamilton to stop who had a personal best first sector time and this automatically handed pole position to Rosberg which he converted into a victory.
