Asked for his opinion af🃏ter finishing second behind Verstappen in Sunday's 🤪Mexico City Grand Prix, a smiling Hamilton said: “I gave you it. That's my thumbs up. 

"I don't really have a lot to say about it, it does make me giggle a little bit to beꦉ honest. 

“But I have tried to be really♋ respectful over the years and for example, when youꦫ've ever asked me about who has been the better driver for me, I've always tried to give praise. 

"It'ℱs definitely interesting to see th🌸e comments that are made, but it doesn't really matter. So that's why I just gave the thumbs up.” 

Two-time world🅠 champion Alonso took to Twitter to clarify his comments after his q🔜uotes were picked up by other media outlets. 

The Alpine driver wrote: “And again… Please, all the titles are amazing, well deserved and inspiring. Incomparable to each other and let’s enjoy champions and legends of our cu꧂rr🧸ent time.

“Tired of the continuous search for h🍸eadlines. Let's enjoy them.”

And again…
