The Brazilian GP sprint delivered some great action. The 24 laps race saw some of the best moves from the F1 star Lewis Hamilton and teammate George Russell. Now the more experienced Briton aims to wrap up the weekend with a Mercedes 1-2.

George Russell will be starting a Sunday race from P1 for the second time in Brazil. Hamilton was delighted with the splendid effort of his teammate as he overtook the current champion Max Verstappen. With under 10 laps remaining, Russell showed his sheer class. The 24-year-old overtook the Dutchman after 3 fierce attempts.

After struggling for pace throughout season 2022, things have started to go in favor of Lewis Hamilton and Co. The Mercedes star is overwhelmed by his performance and the warmth he received in Brazil.

In the post-sprint presser, he said, “Well, firstly, this has been a very humbling week for me being so, so warmly welcomed. And received my citizenship here and the love that I received is you know my parents have messaged and they just they’re so grateful to everyone in Brazil for the love that they have given.”

Adding further, Briton is determined to get the crucial points for the team, “It would be the greatest dream for sure to get a win here. It would be tough to race George tomorrow, but will hopefully have a bit of a battle. And you know? Either way, we’ve gotta make sure that we get the points and the 1-2 for the team.”

The stage is set for what can be Mercedes’s first victory this year. But there was a situation that could have caused problems for the Silver Arrows.

Will Lewis Hamilton face any action from the Stewards in the Brazilian GP?

Hamilton was one of the three drivers who were found in a possible rule violation at the Brazilian circuit. The stewards found that a few cars were out of their grid box. Hamilton, Daniel Ricciardo, and Zhou Guanyu were the names noted down.

But the matter came to an end when the stewards cleared that these drivers did not gain any kind of advantage. Stating the reason why the drivers would have stopped out of their grid box, the stewards mentioned poor visibility from the cars.

The Steward’s verdict read, “Having reviewed all available angles of video, and making measurements on the grid, the stewards noted that the grid boxes were slightly smaller than usual and that the drivers’ visibility makes compliance extremely difficult and that no driver was in a position that gained any advantage. The stewards are therefore satisfied to take no further action.”
