Oscar is the only driver to complete all race laps this season which must tell them something about how professional he is. Lando makes quite a few more mistakes but they always give him priority.

What an extremely odd race. Seemed like the first 2/3rd of the race we had no idea who was quickest. It changed from the Mercs to the MCL and back every few laps by a large margin. In the end Russel had bad luck, Oscar got completely done by MCL, Lando and MCL bottled their strategy together and the RB with Max only really got some pace in the last third of the race after some great strategic call form them. Lewis held on well and carried the softs to the finish. Very entertaining and at the same time very odd in the changes of pace. Edit: Hulk was incredible once again. What a guy.

This race showed, just like in Canada, that McLaren has a FAR superior car to everyon in damp conditions. Remember how Norris pulled a 9s gap to Verstappen in like 10 laps there? Red Bull have the best car in high speed turns generating huge amounts of downforce there but aren’t as good as McLaren at lower speeds. When it’s wet they don’t go as fast so the long sweeping turns actually become really long medium/low speed turns. That was even good for Ferrari as Carlos caught up 6s to max today in those conditions. Usually being slower in the low speed turns isn’t a big issue because you also spend less time there as they are short 90 degree turns for example. But if the long turns become also slow turns it amplifies that advantage. In general the pecking order is the same: Slow turns: Ferrari Medium speed: McLaren High speed: Red Bull McLaren has the best mix atm, and can therefore look better after their tires.

Today’s GP was the definition of what F1 Should be, driver ability! unpredictability, skill, strategy and most of all true emotion!! Regardless of which team you support everyone felt the Hamilton Tears inside that Helmet, felt the crack in his voice talking to Bono, felt that Hug to His father & Mother. Felt the Mercedes team’s spirits lit up! Felt the silverstone crowd standing ovation, in our homes we were on the edge of the seat, nail biting & certainly looking for a Hamilton win. It’s the stuff made of fairytales & the story well crafted like it was a written for a fictional movie. Bravo to Lewis, well deserved win! Looking forward to Hungary

It is not only about the racing driver who won the race, its the power of the crowd that makes racing so unbelievable beautiful even how hard and difficult the conditions and circumstances may be, its the support around you that makes you forget the immense pressure. The only drivers who you get an emotional attachment are Fangio, Jim Clark, Hakkinen, Lauda, Senna and now also Hamilton. This make them the best out of the best ever!

In Imola he couldn't get within a second of Max, in Barcelona he didn't clear Russell as fast as Max did, which cost him the win more than the subpar start. Today he wasn't able to chase after Lewis on the final stint. In Austria Sprint he let Max repass him and in the race, could not pull of a clean move although the contact was Max's fault. Don't get me wrong he is still a very strong driver but I held him in such high regard that it feels disappointing that Miami is still his only win when he could have potentially won in Imola, Canada, Spain, Austria and Britain.

Just a week after that 103rd career win in Jeddah, Hamilton suffered the most bruising defeat of his career when the 2021 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix and an eighth world title were ripped from his grasp. Two and a half years on from that feverish night, the mental scars inflicted by the controversial actions of then-race director Michael Masi -- actions the FIA later put down to human error -- are occasionally visible. Asked if the win at Silverstone was the final piece of the puzzle he needed to finally move on from the events of 2021, Hamilton said, "I think only time will tell."

Watching with all my friends and we were certain it was going to happen as soon as we saw Lando go for another lap. McLaren still lacks what Mercedes and Red Bull have and that is the experience.

Seeing how much it meant to him and him hugging his parents for ages is one of the most heartwarming moments this sport has ever shown me.

Lewis looked after his tyres! He has always been good at tyre management. I miss the days he’d say tyres are gone Bono then he bangs in fastest laps 😂! I really hope this win has reassured him he’s still got it! I’m just worried now Ferrari have gone backwards we need Ferrari back on top next year!

This is why Ferrari need Lewis... his experience is going to be invaluable to them. Charles going on the Inters way too early.

Sir Lewis earned every bit of his time in the sun today. A class victory.

Im sorry Peter, but the softs from Lando weren't a good call. That's just factually incorrect. Oscar gained like 6 seconds on him in that stint alone by being on mediums. The soft call is what cost him the race.

You can tell the mclaren had more deg bcuz they kept more heat in their tyres during the rain when they overtook the mercs earlier on. I was surprised the softs burned out that quick, though, considering how low their fuel levels were. The early soft runners lasted around 9 laps

What a great race! No shenanigans. Just great racing from great drivers. Lewis was fantastic on those deteriorating softs and Max relentless in trying to catch Lewis. Oscar unlucky again. Lando drove really well but bad call to go to Softs. Honourable mention to Nico!

Him winning again is good for the sport as a whole. F1 loves its legends and we all lament when they're retired or gone. When Schumacher made his comeback in 2010-2012 most people were over the moon of seeing him racing again. That he didn't win was lamentable but his presence alone pulled people to the races. When Alonso made his comeback in 2021 people were equally thrilled and Alonso's stint at Aston Martin has surprised most people. When Alonso manages fastest laps people smile and think:"He's still got it." Some people still miss Vettel as well as Raikkonen's no-nonsense comments. I was too young to remember it but when Senna tragically died he left a huge vacuum. With Prost, Mansell and Piquet retired there was a huge drop in television viewers. Mansell was actually called by Bernie Ecclestone himself to comeback to F1 so that people would have a "legend" to watch. This was of course *before* Schumacher had won his first title. *Senna* was the only legend left. Legends are ultimately compared to other legends. In F1, in history, in sport, music and virtually everything. I'm a McLaren fan. Anybody who drives and wins for them is who I (mostly) root for. I wanted Lando (or Piastri) to win at Silverstone but had a secret wish Lewis would win. Mika Hakkinen made me support McLaren. It's also the team of Senna and Prost (both of whom won three titles for them). Kimi Raikkonen ultimately was champion with Ferrari but his raw speed during his McLaren days... pure joy. Wish I saw Senna race. Hamilton signed for Ferrari. Wish he returned to McLaren. Wish Max was driving for them. :) In 2034 if Max is still in F1 I will also proclaim him a legend important for the sport and rejoicing when he wins against "young driver X".

Hard to imagine that Mclaren just have two wins in ten years , this inexperience now is coming to the fore , I mean they are they 2nd most successful team in F1 but it is clear they are just not used to battling in the front at all , they are bottling chance after chance it's amazing

This was a race won by two drivers that used their experience as world champions to let the race come to them. They made the right decisions at the right time and that earned Lewis a well deserved win and Max P2 on a day that the Red Bull was nowhere near the best. Both drivers more than showed their worth.

That was magical to watch. A GP to remember. The Battle of Britain. Won by a legend, an ace, a Knight of England. What an amazing race that was.

‘Mechanical sympathy’-superb description, Peter

This has to be spoken about more widely. This among so many other aspects of his career is phenomenal. He turned up every day and every race. He’s the first driver to win nine grands prix at the same event, surpassing Michael Schumacher’s eight in France. He’s the first driver to win a race after starting his 300th grand prix - this was his 344th - breaking the so-called 300-club curse that’s seen champions Fernando Alonso, Kimi Räikkönen, Schumacher and Jenson Button as well as Rubens Barrichello fail to add to their victory tallies after clocking up their triple centuries. He is a decoration to the sport. Ready to smile, ready to laugh, ready to compliment and recognise others. Lewis is one of the greatest, mentally strong sportsmen ever.

Abu Dhabi 21. It looms so large over everything even still, and yet nothing was or likely ever can be done about it.

@@jamtalawah2231 Hate to be that guy but from what I've read he burned a lot of bridges whilst being at other teams. McLaren offered him a very lucrative contract for 2007-2008-2009 but he ended it prematurely blaming the team for "focusing on Lewis" (Prost did the same with Senna in 1988 but still honored his 1989 contract). Ferrari gave him *everything* and built the entire team around him for five seasons. Luca di Montezemolo eventually grew tired of his antics and summoned him to a personal meeting to clear the air. Word around the Ferrari team was that Alonso's talent mostly circulated around him setting up the car to *his* liking but little else. He wasn't a "team builder" like Schumacher. Ron Dennnis *did not* want to sign him again to head the second era of McLaren-Honda but Honda insisted they wanted a "big name". Honda also agreed to pay his salary. During this time Alonso didn't hold his mouth back slandering Honda whenever he could with "GP engine" etc. Back then I said that "Honda will get it right eventually, just give them time. They're Honda after all and their racing success speaks for itself." It seems Alonso didn't hold this view and basically told McLaren that either him or Honda would be gone for 2018. Now fair enough, McLaren had their own issues but Alonso exacerbated all that. When Honda started their cooperation with Red Bull I said:"They will be champions with them in a few seasons". So Alonso retired. Then he came back with Renault/Alpine for a third time. Before getting upset with them. I think that Ocon guy winning had a thing to do with it (himself rather overrated and erratic). Aston Martin offered him a nice deal. Where he shone in a car basically a copy of the very successful 2022 Red Bull. All he has to do is to beat Lance Stroll... To be brutally frank if Alonso is as great as his supporters claim he is then top teams like Red Bull, Mercedes and Ferrari would walk barefoot through a mile of glass to get his signature. Alas it seems "Team Lawrence Stroll" is the only one keen on him where he can "mentor" Lance. If I were at Aston Martin I wouldn't build my team around him. Yes, his skill as a driver are still good but *his skill as a team builder and developer* is still questionable. Thus his 11 years without a single win. Some anomaly if it were always due to "always at the wrong team and the wrong time". He's part of that problem.

What an amazing day to be a F1 fan or better said a human being fan. Go Sir Lewis Hamilton!

0:35 I have to disagree, because LH did seem to loose a bit of motivation and drive, as well as enthusiasm. Notwithstanding an uncompetitive M-B, it was quite clear the lion he was in 2021, was not there in 22, 23, and 24. What he never lost was his elegance and poise. I believe there is absolutely no way Russell would have beaten him prior to 2022, there is no way that would have happen, for as good as George is, he cannot be compared to Lewis by any stretch of the imagination, and this is why I feel LH was not very motivated for the past two and a half years.

@paulallen8109

Lewis easily beat Russell in 2023 and ended up 3rd. More importantly the first behind the dominant Red Bulls. Personally I think Russell is d*mn fine driver. Saw him dominate in the lower formulae and he made easy work of Lando while they both were in F2 back in 2018. He outqualified his team mates 37-0 for his first 37 races in F1 while at Williams. He *did* qualify a goddawful Williams on the first row at Spa in 2021. An embarrassing pit stop blunder denied him a first time win the first race for Mercedes in 2020. "motivation" is nonsense. All drivers who end up in F1 have been very motivated do to well which is why they are in F1 to begin with. All the drivers want to win and all of them want to be champion. Too many fools fail to see that the lack of results has *nothing* to do with motivation. When some important factors and variables are missing you can be the most motivated in the world it still won't grant you success. Fools fail to understand this because they reduce a complex question to merely "personal responsibility". The reason for this belief is that people want to dream/imagine only they are responsible and "in control" of their lives. Generational talents like Lewis Hamilton have skills. Others simply don't have it. Hamilton never lost his ability. These last 3 years spelled "Red Bull domination" and dominated they did like no team has ever before. *Everybody* appears de-motivated facing that. As soon as they have a chance they however go for it. Hence the wins by Hamilton, Russell and Norris.
