Immediately after the race, Hamilton admitted to the media he was 100 per🦩 cent to blame, revealing he’d apologised to Piastri.
“Yeah, that was Lewis’ mistake,” Wolff s🅘aid when asked about the Piastri clash.
“I think a five-second pena⛎lty for that is what the ꦐmenu says.
“These things ha𓄧ppen, it's hard racing. You've got to overtake here and we’ve seen a few of these. It’s justifiable.
“He’s very sporܫtsmanlike with these🍌 things, he is the only one that I see out there admitting and saying: 'I got this wrong'.
𒉰“We just had a chat. [He said]: 'I didn’t see him on the right and it was on me.'
“That 🐭kind of sportsmanship is what you need to admire with him. Pretty much everyone is always comꦜplaining and moaning just to try to not get a penalty.”
