Formula 1 2018: Lewis Hamilton wins French Grand Prix, Daniel Ricciardo pipped for podium - 25th June 2018

FORMULA One world champion Lewis Hamilton has steered clear of chaos on the opening lap to win the first French Grand Prix in a decade and retake the overall lead from Ferrari’s Sebastian Vettel.

Vettel finished only fifth after colliding with Hamilton’s Mercedes team mate Valtteri Bottas at the start.

Sunday’s victory was the 65th of Hamilton’s F1 career but the Briton’s first in France, which last hosted a race in 2008.

“Great work guys! I’m so happy for England as well,” he said over the team radio, referring to the nation’s 6-1 World Cup group win over Panama. “It’s a beautiful Sunday, everyone.” Hamilton, who started on pole position, now leads Vettel by 14 points after eight of 21 races. The Briton has 145 and the German 131.

Dutch 20-year-old Max Verstappen took the chequered flag in second with Kimi Raikkonen passing Vettel and completing the podium for Ferrari. Australian Daniel Ricciardo was fourth.

Hamilton had never before won in France and his victory at Le Castellet, a southern circuit that last hosted Formula One in 1990, set a record for the most wins at different grands prix.

He had shared the record of 22 with retired seven-times world champion Michael Schumacher. He also extended his record of wins at different circuits to 26. There was drama at the start as Hamilton and Bottas lined up on the front row with Vettel just behind in third.

Vettel and Bottas collided as they jostled for position, with the German handed a five-second penalty for causing the collision.

“We were going side by side to the braking zone. I went for the outside and I think I braked quite a bit later and left enough room for him to be inside still,” Bottas said.

“He just went wide and hit me. I got a puncture and decent damage to the floor, which really compromised the race.” Niki Lauda, the Mercedes non-executive chairman, believed Vettel’s penalty was too lenient.

“Five seconds is nothing. He really destroyed the whole race for himself and for Bottas,” he said.

Vettel said that, with hindsight, he would have been better off with a slower start.

“It was my mistake. I tried to brake early and get out of it but I had no room,” said the German.

The incident dropped both to the back of the field after pitstops while the safety car was deployed for four laps with debris scattered across the track from other accidents.

Two of the three French drivers retired on the spot, with Force India’s Esteban Ocon and Toro Rosso’s Pierre Gasly the unlucky casualties.

Vettel returned to the pits for a new front wing while Bottas limped back on three wheels and a rim with the remains of the tyre flailing. Their fight back into the points, and in Vettel’s case with some hope of ending up on the podium, provided much of the entertainment for the rest of the afternoon with the German up to eighth after 15 laps.
