Verstappen inflicted a home defeat on Charles Leclerc and Ferrari by charging to his 11th victory in 15 races at the 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Italian Grand Prix to edge ever closer to cliᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚnching his second world title🍸. 

The Dutchman is on a run of five consecutive victories but, remarkably, only one of those has come from pole position. Verstappen won from 10th in Hungary, 14th in Belgium, and ⛄his latest win at Monza - the 31st of his career - came from seventh after being hit with a grid penalty for using too many engine parts. 

Hamilton is enduring his longest streak without a victory amid Red Bull’s domination and is at 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:risk of losing his record of being the on🐟ly F1 driver in history to have won a race in each sea𝔉son they have competed. 

Asked whether he thinks a win could be possible at the next rܫace in Singapore, Hamilton said: “We have to be realistic. That Red Bull is almost u🎶nbeatable. 

“It’s going to take some real doing to beat tha🎃t car. Performance-wise they are fully ahead of everyone. 

“We haven’t caught them and we don’t have upgrades coming to overtake the✤m, so it’s going to take some fortune going our way. 

“Not impossible, because we could potentially have beaten them in Zandv൲oort, ma♓ybe could have beaten them in Budapest. 

“But he [Verstappe♏n] has generally chilled at the front, so you neve🎶r know the true pace.” 

Lewis Hamilton: Battling ‘way more fun than starting first’ 

The seven-time 🌟world champion turned in a strong recovery drive to finish fifth at Monza, having started from 19th due to enforced power unit changes following damage picked up in his first-lap collision with Fernando Alonso at Spa. 

Hamilton said he found fighting his way through the pack more enjoyable than simply starting from theဣ front, in what appeared to be a dig towards his 2021 title rival Verstappen. 

“[It’s] a thousand times more enjoyable, battling with people,” he said. “I remember my first go-kart was like an old kart, we always had to start at the back, old tyres,✱ that’s what I’ve always enjoyed doing. 

“So today, having thos♏e battles, is way more fun than starting first. It’s a different chapter but I must prefer battles.”

He added: “When yo🔥u win it’s something completely different. I love the idea of moving forwards. I felt like I climbed up♓ a ladder. Progress is a good feeling.” 

A crucial moment on Ham♐ilton’s rise to fifth came when he pulled off a superb double overtake on McLaren’s Lando Norris and AlphaTauri driver Pierre Gasly on the run to Curva Grande. 

“This was a keyꦐ move,” Hamilton explained. “If I hadn’t pulled that off then I would have been two places back. It’s about timing. You don’t always get it right. 

“I saw Landওo comi𓆏ng out and I was like ‘this is the one moment we have the chance’. Unfortunately for him he was being channelled by someone else around the outside, so I cut across. It felt great.”
