Lewis Hamilton celebrates his Portuguese Grand Prix victory with Valtteri Bottas Hamilton had to pass Bottas as well as title rival Max Verstappen to win at Portimao Hamilton reasserts Mercedes dominance This was a classic Lewis Hamilton performance and is an example of why he is the best in the business and that it is not 'all about the car'. But Bottas could not keep up on race day, with Hamilton breezing past to take the lead, while he even fell behind Verstappen late on to finish a highly dispiriting third. Schumacher believes the team now have the pace to challenge Williams during a race Red Bull need more from Sergio Perez Red Bull's lack of a stable No 2 driver has proven a problem since Daniel Ricciardo left the team at the end of 2018 following over two years battling hard with Max Verstappen.
