We've got to look into the balance through the corners, look at all the weak points, and just huddle up as a team. That's what we do." It’s the second Grand Prix race in a row where Hamilton donned the Pride colours. The Mercedes driver previously wore the helmet in a show of LGBT+ solidarity at the Qatar Grand Prix in November.

The extraordinary events at the end of a race that had already had two safety cars and a previous red flag were triggered when Kevin Magnussen's Haas ran wide at the first chicane and tagged the wall. He continued: “Places such as here where the LGBT community, there’s prison time, the death penalty and restrictions for people being themselves. And I don’t believe in that.” Wearing a blue suit, the record 103-time grand prix winner received Brazil’s legislative medal of merit and a diploma, and he made a speech thanking his fans and dedicating the honour to Senna.I've driven so many cars in my life. I know what a car needs. I know what a car doesn't need. I think it's really about accountability." Gasly went with the Ferrari and was on course to take fifth in an impressive performance for the French team before the late drama. Verstappen now leads the drivers' title by 15 points Verstappen in cruise control Do I feel comfortable here? I wouldn’t say I do,” he said. “But it’s not my choice to be here, the sport has taken the choice to be here.”

Last year, Hamilton experienced a roller-coaster weekend in Sao Paulo but ultimately began a run of three grand prix victories that put him level on points with Max Verstappen going into the title decider in Abu Dhabi.Great Britain’s Lewis Hamilton made a statement wearing his Pride flag helmet as he won the first-ever Saudi Arabian Grand Prix. That has reinvigorated Hamilton’s shot at claiming second in the drivers’ championship. He was 39 points behind going into the race but now trails by 20, with three races remaining, and the British driver will believe it can be done, not least given Pérez’s poor form. Hamilton's comments conveniently came just as he was arriving in Brazil to deliver a keynotes speech at an event, with the Mercedes driver having travelled to both Kuala Lumpur and Sao Paulo since last weekend's Australian GP. Hamilton trailed Verstappen by 21 points going into the race but is now only 14 behind with three meetings left. He emphasised how, despite the penalties over the weekend, he refused to be bowed and got past nine drivers on Sunday to win, including a tense battle against Verstappen. “Mentally you can just think it’s over, it’s impossible,” he said. “Nothing is if you put your mind to it. That’s really why we just cultivated a positive mental attitude and went in fighting, guns blazing.” Hamilton, however, had much more work to do having started in sixth and the seven-time champion put his head down to deliver the sort of run that has put him at the peak of the sport for so long.
