Hamilton Expects Vettel Response

Hamilton Expects Vettel Response

Mercedes star Lewis Hamilton says rival Sebastian Vettel will respond to his mistake in the Bahrain GP on Sunday.

Vettel endured a weekend to forget in Bahrain as he spun out of contention battling for second position with Hamilton.

The Ferrari star also saw team-mate Charles Leclerc finish ahead of him by securing third spot, having looked set to win the race until technical problems wrecked his chances.

The German came in fifth on Sunday and Hamilton says he expects the four-time world champion to bounce back in the weeks ahead.

“Sebastian is a true world champion, a great athlete and he will recover,” said Hamilton, who claimed the win on Sunday after Leclerc’s engine problem. “Just because you are a multiple world champion, it doesn’t mean you are not going to have off-weekends.

It happens to all of us. “If you look at his career, he has had stunning performances that far outweigh his weaker races.

For example, when he has spun, they are minuscule on the status he has accumulated and created in the sport.”
