F1 | Mercedes, Hamilton: “An incredible day, I dedicate the victory to little Harry”

Lewis Hamilton took his third win of the season, helping Mercedes also take their fifth consecutive double. A crazy start to the championship for the Anglo/German team, certainly helped by opponents not up to the task. With this success, the Englishman returned to the top of the standings, slightly downgrading Valtteri Bottas, the only challenger at the moment.

“It was an incredible day for the team – said the winner of the Spanish Grand Prix. We brought updates and everyone here worked hard to make it possible and effective, I'm proud of everyone at the factory, I'm grateful for their hard work. Everyone on the track is also performing at a really high level. When the traffic lights went out, the start was good and I was close to Valtteri, but I also think that Ferrari was at my side, so it was a great battle, but it was also the decisive moment of the race. Then I concentrated on pushing on every lap. I want to dedicate this victory to Harry (a child who was diagnosed with cancer last August), a boy who sent me a message today: he was my source of inspiration, he could have chosen another rider, so for him to send such a message in such a difficult time is greatly appreciated. Sending you all my love, Harry."
