Hamilton reveals drinks bottle failed in F1 French GP podium charge

After Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc retired from the lead at Paul Ricard, Hamilton moved up to second place which he kept until the finish, crossing the line 10 seconds behind Red Bull’s winner Max Verstappen.

Afterwards Hamilton, who had to take a breather in the cooldown room, revealed his drinks bottle didn’t work during the race, which made his drive in the sweltering hot conditions to his season-best result even tougher.

That’s one way to celebrate 300 races @LewisHamilton
