Hamilton overcomes time penalty to claim famous win

19 Jul 2021 - {{hitsCtrl.values.hits}}      

Lewis Hamilton fought back from a 10-second penalty for a crash with title rival Max Verstappen to pass Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc and claim a dramatic British Grand Prix victory yesterday.
Verstappen, 23, was taken to hospital for precautionary tests after the accident while Hamilton set about trying to win the race.


The Grand Prix was stopped after the incident with Leclerc in the lead from Hamilton and the Ferrari driver held that position until two laps from the end, when the Mercedes driver passed him, ironically, at the same corner at which he had crashed with Verstappen.BBC
