ABU DHABI - Pole sitter Lewis Hamilton had to pull out of Sunday's inaugural Abu Dhabi Grand Prix owing to technical problems midway through the race while he was leading.
Hamilton, who was smartly out of the blocks to establish a solid early lead, retired on lap 20 with McLaren boss Martin Whitmarsh indicating his car appeared to have a brake problem.
"I was struggling to stop the car," said outgoing world champion Hamilton.
"The right rear brake wasn't working and it was too dangerous to continue," Hamilton told the BBC.
