Formula One championship leader Lewis Hamilton won a record sixth British Grand Prix on Sunday after jumping ahead of Mercedes teammate Valtteri Bottas by taking advantage of the safety car being deployed.
Formula One driver Lewis Hamilton celebrates on the podium after capturing his sixth victory in the British Grand Prix at Silverstone on Sunday.
After finally moving into the lead, Hamilton avoided pitting again so stayed on hard tires while Bottas was on fresher soft ones but the world champion still set a lap record on the final lap. “Today was one of the best days I can remember having,” Hamilton said. “I have done so many races you would think I would get used to it or the feeling would numb down but it feels as amazing as the first win .”
