Lewis tastes his own medicine

Hamilton fially tasted his own medicine during last year's Qatar Grand prix. His own teammate George Russell gave Hamilton the taste of his medicine by going inside the line of Hamilton’s car and touching him and Lewis went off the track crashing out of the race.

Hamilton had a better start than George and went outside the line of the first corner. Russell who started second next to Max Verstappen desperate to save his position went to the corners through the inside line making it hard for Lewis to move further.

The collision ended Lewis Hamilton’s race as he got damaged in his car. Mercedes also was very disappointed with the results as George Russell could only finish 4th after starting second. This year we will see Hamilton racing for one last time in Qatar for the Mercedes F1 team.
