“I Don’t Really Have a Care”: Lewis Hamilton Brushes off Outburst Against Dangerous Pierre Gasly Situation at Suzuka

Pierre Gasly has seen casualties in Formula 1 and the lower Formulas. However, at the Japanese Grand Prix yesterday, he stared death straight in the eyes. Nevertheless, when 7x Champion Lewis Hamilton was asked about what he thought of the incident, he didn’t seem too fussed about it.
