F1 LIVE: Red Bull defend Max Verstappen after he accuses Lewis Hamilton | F1 | Sport
Lewis Hamilton denied that passing the 200-podium mark at the Hungarian Grand Prix was a special moment.
“The number doesn’t, no,” he revealed. “I just think about these two and how young these guys are. They were in nappies when I started, so… Honestly, it just makes me think about the whole journey and all the great people I’ve had the chance to work with.
“You know, I got signed by McLaren when I was 13 and so there was always so much love for that team and through the journey that we had, where I had my first World Championship and then they went through a really difficult time, so to see them back up there is really, really great. I’m really happy. You know that’s my old family, so really, really grateful to be up here with them.
“And then ultimately I think it was a tough race today and I definitely didn’t think I would be having 200 podiums, but what have I done? Like 340-something races? So, not too bad a score, but I couldn’t have done it without all those great people that I’ve worked with in both these teams.”
