Britain’s Lewis Hamilton took over Michael Schumacher’s record for number of GP wins three weeks ago, when he won the World Cup race in Portugal, his 92nd victory.
Today, the Mercedes driver broke another Schumacher record, when he won the Turkish Grand Prix, thus securing his seventh World Cup title.
Bottas skated early
The victory, which is thus complete despite three races remaining, was founded at the beginning of the race. That was when his Finnish stablemate Valtteri Bottas slipped early in the race and finished last on the field.
Bottas advanced, but finished no better than 14th, while Hamilton achieved his 93rd career victory and thus achieved an impregnable advantage in the World Cup table, as Bottas with his placement ran out of points today. .
– This is for all children who dream of the impossible. You can do that too. I believe in you! Thank you for your support, said an excited Hamilton in the car immediately after the finish.
“I dreamed of this”
After the race, he developed his thoughts in the victory interview.
– I dreamed of this when I was young, when we watched GP races. But this is far beyond our dreams. It is important for all children, who are told they cannot do anything: You have to work for it! You must never give up, but you must follow your dreams, she said with tears in her voice.
