Lewis Hamilton has said his Azerbaijan GP fightback shows he still has plenty of hunger for racing in F1.
Having been running in fifth, ahead of teammate George Russell, when he pitted on Lap 9. Moments later, when Nyck de Vries clipped the wall at Turn 5 before parking his AlphaTauri at Turn 6, the Safety Car was deployed – handing less time-consuming stops to those who had yet to pit. Hamilton would go on to finish sixth, capitalising on a mid-race error from Lance Stroll when the Aston Martin driver outbraked himself into the corner leading onto the massive pit straight. Hamilton finished within DRS range of Ferrari’s Carlos Sainz, just missing out on fifth.
Asked about his mindset as the race resumed, having lost five positions as a result of the Safety Car intervention, Hamilton said he kept his disappointment pushed aside.“I just had to keep my head down and get focused on attacking, and that’s what I did. I got my head down and got right back in the race. And yeah, I really enjoyed those battles.
