he battled from 11th up to third, but then his team called him in for a tyre change and it did not pay off. it dropped him down to fifth. hamilton had wanted to stay out and was less than delighted. i feel like i should have stayed out. my gut feeling was to stay and i feel i should have like done. so frustrated at myself for not following my gut. but i work as a team, so... i did the best i could with the advice i was given. ahead of him, though, no one could catch valtteri bottas. the finn's first win of the season, while verstappen's second place was enough for him to retake the lead in the drivers championship. we maximised the result, valtteri was a little bit faster, but of course, this whole weekend, we were a bit behind in pace compared to mercedes and this race was all about just managing the tyres to a certain lap where you don't have to pit for another set and again, bring that the end. bring that to the end. it was not the most fun to drive because normally you want to push a little bit more.
