F1: Safety Car mess, Lewis Hamilton’s swipe at Max Verstappen
Lewis Hamilton refer to Abu Dhabi: “This time they followed the rules.”
The Safety Car train to the finish line at the Italian Grand Prix in Monza infuriated Ferrari and the fans present at the Autodromo, who were already anticipating last-lap duels. To Sky Lewis Hamilton went against the tide: “About the end of the race I am not angry, because these are the rules.”
“I would have liked to fight until the end,” Hamilton specified, “but all this brings back memories (the reference is to Abu Dhabi 2021 ed.) and these are the rules. Only once in history did the sport not follow the rules, as they did today. There they changed the outcome of the World Cup. But it went the way it went,” is the venomous message to Red Bull.
