F1 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix: Lewis Hamilton addresses last year’s controversy - “I won’t think of the past”

Hamilton and168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Max Verstappen arrive at the 2022 finale at the same circuit as one of F1’s most controversial moments at the 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:2021 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.
Hamilton was denied an all-time record eighth title and Verstappen won his first championship when then-race director Michael Masi incorrectly applied a 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Safety Car rule.
Hamilton tꦉold Sky as he arrived this weekend: “I am very much living in 🎐the present. I won’t arrive thinking of the past.
“I will focus on… I don’t know if we are able to win this weekend. I don’t kn🌃ow if the car 🎉will work well here on the long straights.
“But if there’s a chance, we will go for it.”
Last weekend in Brazil, Hamilton finished behind Mercedes teammate 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:George Russell who won his first ever F1 grand prix.
It was notably Merce🌸des’ first win of 2022 at the penultimate opportunity after a year blighted by porpoising and performance issues, and gives hope that they could challenge Verstappen and Red Bull in 2🧜023.

“It’s all down to the huge workforce that we have in the UK who have been so determined all year,” Hamilton said. “It was frustrating for them that all their work last wꦇinter turned out how it did.
“Rather th﷽an sulk or get down, everyon🔯e has been geed up.
“We have tested so many things, had soไ many updates.
“To𓆏 finally bring the update in Austin theౠn see its performance appear over the past three races has been so reviving.”
