Hamilton hoped for a better result and predicts boring race tomorrow
- GPblog.com
Lewis Hamilton seemed to be on his way to 98th pole position. In the last run in Q3, however, he was dropped to second-place by his teammate Valtteri Bottas. After qualifying, the reigning world champion says he is not satisfied with the result but is looking forward to the first corner on Sunday.
"Valtteri did a great job. It was a pretty poor lap from myself. These things happen you can't always get it perfect. But what a beautiful place we're in here in Italy and the track is unbelievable, the speeds that we're going around this track. Grateful top be here and grateful for the performance we have, which is really remarkable," explained Hamilton.
Tomorrow will be a challenge
"It feels better than it did in the last race. It was a real challenge out there, I enjoyed it. Tomorrow you will see that it will be a relatively boring race. You can only overtake on the long straight," Hamilton concluded.
