Perez went wide aꦬt Turn 15, allowing Ha♍milton to get alongside into the following corner.

Perez ultimately re𓆏tired from the race, while Hamilton was demoted to seventh after finishing fourth.
Reflectꦫing on the incident, Hamilton said: “He was pretty slow and went wide and slow through 14. I got a great exit, I was more than half a car alongside him and we just ended up coming together.
“It was a bit of a racing incident reaꦕlly, naturally it wasn’t ඣintentional but they saw it differently.

“It was very tricky conditions o✨ut there, we were all trying our best. It doesn’t make a huge difference, fourth or seventh in the Sprint you don’t get a lot of points.”
Hamilton will start the main grand p𒆙rix from third on the grid.
“Our pace has generally been de♉cent,” he addedꦆ.
“Third tomorrow, I’ve got a Ferrari and Perez ahead so I’m hoping 🅷I’ll be able to fight those guys. At some point Max will come sailing by and I’ll just try and keep the🌳 Ferraris behind.”
