Lewis Hamilton wins Tuscan Grand Prix for his 90th GP win

Lewis Hamilton wins Tuscan Grand Prix for his 90th GP win.

Hamilton registered his 90th GP win at the Tuscan Prix, to take his tally to just one behind the all-time record set by Michael Schumacher.

The race was marred by red flags, smashes and mistakes, but the reigning champion managed to bounce back to win after a terrible finish at the previous race.

The temperatures hit 30°C at the Tuscan Grand Prix, with Hamilton saying ‘it was three races in one day’ after the win.

The race saw saw a safety car after first lap crash involving six cars including Red Bull star Max Verstappen.

Alex Albon passed Renault’s Daniel Ricciardo late on to secure his first podium in Formula One.

The first of two red flags was waved. Racing was suspended for 36 minutes while debris on the straight was cleared.

By the time of the next restart, 45 minutes after the action had started, there had been about 10 seconds — and two corners — of racing, yet seven retirements, when Renault’s Esteban Ocon, from a brake issue, is included.

Off the grid for a second time, Hamilton, who had made a terrible getaway originally and lost his pole advantage to Bottas, this time zoomed straight into the Finn’s slipstream and swooped into the lead at the first corner and lead to the finish flag.
