At the Mugello circuit, at the end of an incredible race, Lewis Hamilton with Mercedes he won the Grand Prix of Tuscany, ninth round of the 2020 World Championship. The world champion preceded his teammate to the finish line Valtteri Bottas. Third place for Red Bull’s Alexander Albon. David Coulthard interviewed the top three.
Lewis Hamilton (1st, Mercedes): “The different phases? I don’t remember them, it’s all cloudy in my head, like doing three races in one day. It was incredibly difficult today. The beginnings were difficult but this track is phenomenal. I struggled to keep Valtteri behind him, he was phenomenal all weekend. In all these outings I had to maintain total concentration and it was really very difficult. Complicated points? The restarts required total concentration. I had to manage the tires, but then with the various interruptions this became easier. I just had to worry because Valtteri had had a problem with us. When I got the tires used on the second restart, I saw Valtteri suddenly go to the pits and I found Daniel behind, but he really was on the spot. I was trying to nibble tenths and I was trying to stretch, there are long straights, so you have to avoid them taking the DRS from behind. I love this kind of racing and the racing here is crazy. Getting the 90th win is incredible. “.
Valtteri Bottas (2nd, Mercedes): “Very disappointing. The start was a dream, then I held on well even after the first restart from the Safety Car, I don’t remember all the phases well, but I had no more chances once I lost the opportunity on the second restart. Half championship? Yes, I have to keep pushing, I will try to improve. Today did not go well even though I was fast. Where to improve? I lost several grades by a few pennies, this is the first thing I need to improve. I have to present these pennies and bring them to me side “.
Alexander Albon (3rd, Red Bull): “Today was very nice. I worked hard to get here. It was very hard. I am very happy, I can finally breathe, it is a good feeling. In fact, I expected it to be worse physically. In the end we managed to get her home quite easily. In the high-speed sectors, you feel the G-forces a lot, but we managed to hold on well, I’m happy. It was nice. I think we managed to make good overtaking, it was nice and fun to drive on this track.”.
