Lewis Hamilton explains very sarcastic Ferrari radio message after double controversy
Lewis Hamilton claims the ‘fire in his belly’ is to blame for his sarcastic outburst at Ferrari race engineer Riccardo Adami during the Miami Grand Prix. The Brit was itching to be let past team-mate Charles Leclerc, and having finally got the go-ahead several laps after lodging the request, he said: “Take a tea break while you’re at it.”
After the race, Hamilton explained: “I’ve still got my fire in my belly. I could feel a bit of it really coming up there. I’m not going to apologise for being a fighter. I’m not going to apologise for still wanting it. I know everyone in the team does, too.
