Hamilton: Red Bull’s F1 advantage remains “undeniable”
Starting from third place on the grid, the Mercedes driver took advantage of Charles Leclerc’s loss of momentum after Turn 1 to secure second place, following a failed overtaking attempt on Verstappen at the start. Hamilton was able to stay close to Verstappen at the beginning of the race, but eventually fell out of DRS range and finished 9.4 seconds behind. Despite feeling that Mercedes had made progress with their upgrades, Hamilton acknowledged that Red Bull still had a significant advantage. Verstappen, starting in sixth place for the upcoming race, was seen as a threat by Hamilton, who anticipated a good battle with him, as well as with Charles Leclerc and Lando Norris. Verstappen, on the other hand, felt in control throughout the race after successfully defending his position from Leclerc, and praised the pace of his car.
