Two-time world champion Verstappen continued his charge to a third straight drivers’ crown as he equalled168澳洲5最新开奖结果: Ayrton Senna’s career total of 41 vic🌳toriꦅes with a dominant win at the Canadian Grand Prix.

Hamilton was beaten to second place by Aston Martin’s 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Fernando Alonso but rackꦫed up his second podium in as many races in𝓡 Mercedes’ upgraded W14.
When asked if there is a sense of frustration that 🦋he is currently unable to challenge Verstappen, the seven-time world champion answered: “It’s not a frustr👍ation anymore, if it ever was.
“You know how it is. You know what you are faced with and there’s nothing I can do about their amazing perforඣmance.
“It’s likely they will win every race moving forwards🎉 this year, unlesꦆs the Astons and us put a lot more performance on the cars, or their car doesn’t finish.
“It’s not easy with the regulations to chip away or🦋 to find the amount of performance that they have advantage-wise.
“They’ve got to be 30 points up on us in certain 🌠points through the lap. We’ve got📖 some work to do.
“It’s not that it’s frustrating. I’m happy tꦺo firstly be back in the mix and I’m hoping at some stage we can get back to some of the good races we had in 2021.
“To h🌸ave all three of us in𝓡 a super-tight battle would be sick.”
The trio of Verstappen, A🔥lonso and Hamilton 🐻have a combined total of 11 world championships between them. Hamilton suggested it is the strongest top-three F1 has ever seen.
“It’s a privilege to be up here fighting these two, who have done incredible i𝕴n their careers,” he said.
“This is quite an iconic top three. I don’t know if there’s been a top three like tไhis ever before. I don’t believe there has.”
And the 38-year-old Briton hopes🦄 to enjoy closer fights with ⛎Verstappen and Alonso in the future.
“Hopefully they’ll be more,” Hamilton said. “There’s a huge respecಞt between us and we are able to race so closely and trust in one a🔴nother.
“So I really hope at some stage we will have a more level-playing field with our cars and can have much more exciting races in the future.ಌ”
