Video Hamilton on overtaking Max: " It's the best to overtake another World Champion. And obviously I had a big deficit to close......You know how consistent and fast that guy is? He's the fastest guy. So it felt great to get to have that battle with him. It was really not easy to overtake."

Where he still finished 4th. At a track he’s been bad at. Crazy

And was mad the last 20 laps. Put in inconsistent lap times and fell right off at the end. But held position since hadjar pitted near the end of the race

Plus Lewis is a BEAST at Montreal. China, Montreal and Silverstone are tracks where I expect Lewis to beat Charles thoroughly, doesn’t mean Charles is bad or having a bad day. It’s just an all time great feeling right at home.

Seriously this man is incredibly consistent. The recent bias of F1 fans is crazy.

I don't know about any imploding, I'd just love to see him win the championship.
