Lewis Hamilton reacts to ‘unfortunate’ Max Verstappen retirement at Bahrain Grand Prix
The Metro says Lewis Hamilton admits his rival Max Verstappen was ‘unfortunate’ as he suffered a late retirement at the Bahrain Grand Prix, allowing the Brit to pinch third place.
Charles Leclerc topped the podium, with his Ferrari teammate second, but it could have been very different if Verstappen had not been hit by issues with his car.
The Dutchman was second in the closing laps before suffering a problem which team boss Christian Horner described as ‘a lift pump or a collector or something along those lines.’
Verstappen’s Red Bull teammate Sergio Perez was also forced to retire with a similar problem in a nightmare start to the season for the team.
