with max verstappen eating into his lead, the world champion was suddenly in trouble. three wheels, hamilton managing to limp home for the most dramatic of wins with his closest rival looming into view. i was trying to get around and not be too slow. i nearly didn't get round the last two corners. thank god we did and i really owe it to the team. that was no doubt one of the most thrilling of his wins ever. for some of the race, it was something of a possession. the dominance of hamilton and his team—mate bottas reinforcing the sense that they are ina reinforcing the sense that they are in a league of their own the season compared to the rival teams. but of course the fact is that had max verstappen not made that late pit stop to change tyres in a successful bid to secure a point for the first to slap, then he would have won this race. he would have got past lewis hamilton and the british driver would have been denied. as it was, a course record took that decision and hamilton won with just a few seconds to spare. next weekend, of course, silverstone hosts another gran

so that is done, not a lot we can do about that, but our hope is max verstappen when it comes to the in third place, much like last time out of silverstone, that hopefully you can get amongst the fight and maybe even win the race and for the championship, that is what really needs to happen. he is the one pushing at the moment, 30 points behind hamilton. can you believe it? hamilton's 92nd pole position. it is quite formidable the form that he finds himself in at the moment. and the racing points will make it a decent battle behind those in the top three drivers, really aiming to get in the mix and try and really just emphasise that they have got last yea r‘s just emphasise that they have got last year's mercedes and they can do something decent with it. it is worth bearing in mind that they are at barcelona and it isn't usual time they race there. normally, they race in april. this is round six of the world championship and it takes place in a very hot august. temperatures reaching around 33 degrees, it will be a challenge for the drivers, it will be hard work and they will be likel

not a lot we can do about that, but i hope it's max verstappen. like the last time, they will hope that he can get amongst the fight and maybe even win the race and for the championship, that is what really needs to happen. he is the one pushing at the moment 30 points behind hamilton. can you believe it? hamilton's 92nd pole position. it is quite formidable, the form that he finds himself in at the moment. the racing points will make it a decent 01’ racing points will make it a decent or decent pattern, top three drivers aiming to get in the mix, really just emphasise that they have got last yea r‘s just emphasise that they have got last year's mercedes and that they and do something decent. worth bearing in mind that they are at barcelona and it isn't the usual time they raised there. normally, it is in april. this is round six of the world championship and it takes place in a very hot august temperatures reaching around 33 degrees, so it will be a challenge for the drivers. it will be hard work and they will be likely to stop a couple of times
