F1 | Mercedes, Wolff praises Hamilton's sportsmanship

F1 Mercedes Wolff Hamilton – Interviewed by the media at the end of the last Italian Grand Prix in Monza, the 15th round of the 2023 Formula 1 world championship, Toto Wolff praised Lewis Hamilton's sportsmanship with all his colleagues on the grid, specifying how the Englishman is always ready to assume their responsibilities regardless of the result obtained. An important quality, unique in its kind, which according to the Austrian is not present in many other riders present within the starting grid.

In particular, Wolff focused on the clash at the Second Variation between the Englishman and Oscar Piastri in the last GP in Monza, highlighting how the seven-time world champion - at the end of the race - immediately went to apologize to his colleague and accepted without contesting the five-second penalty on the total race time imposed by the Race Stewards.

“Lewis is very sporty and is the only one on the grid to admit the mistake even in episodes like the one with Oscar Piastri in Monza,” said the Austrian from Mercedes. “This type of sportsmanship is what we have to admire in him. Everyone else complains only so as not to receive a penalty, while he is ready to admit his own faults too. It's something I really appreciate."
