Verstappen triumphs over Hamilton after late pass in scintillating French Grand Prix
Paul Ricard
[20 June 2021]
Red Bull took their third consecutive win of the season at a cracking
French Grand Prix courtesy of Max Verstappen, who passed Lewis Hamilton
with two laps to go to claim the thirteenth victory of his career,
Hamilton finishing second as the second Red Bull of Sergio Perez
completed the podium.
In a mirror of the Spanish Grand Prix – when Mercedes out-strategised Red Bull to claim the victory – Verstappen stopped twice to Hamilton’s one-stop, with the Dutchman then using his fresher tyres to close up to the Mercedes, passing on Lap 52 of 53 to check out for his third win of the year.
It more than made up for Verstappen losing out to Hamilton from pole at the race start, Verstappen taking the win as well as the extra point for fastest lap – with the result also marking the first time Red Bull have won three races on the bounce in the turbo-hybrid era.
