F1: Lewis Hamilton Wins Crash-marred Tuscan GP, Mercedes Temamate Valtteri Bottas 2nd

News 18  

Formula One champion Lewis Hamilton kept his cool amid the mayhem caused by an unpredictable circuit, winning a crash-marred Tuscan Grand Prix on Sunday for the 90th win of his incredible career to move one behind Michael Schumachers record. A second red flag late on following Lance Stroll’s heavy crash meant another grid restart on Lap 46 of 59 and gave Valtteri Bottas another chance to beat race leader Hamilton if he made a strong start from second. This track is phenomenal and keeping Valtteri behind was not easy.” Bottas pushed hard and got to within 1.1 seconds of Hamilton on the penultimate lap but the British driver clocked a fastest lap on the last one to take a bonus point. Red Bull driver Alexander Albon drove well to finish third and clinch a first career podium that will boost his chances of keeping his seat alongside team star Max Verstappen next year.
