After all, just look at how it went at the end of the race with Leclerc for example “. Clear and clear words on the fact that Lewis Hamilton is not the culprit in this situation even if the commissioners have judged otherwise by punishing the Mercedes driver with a ten-second penalty.

The race was thrilling, catching Charles so few kilometers from the checkered flag made everything very exciting ”.
