168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton has admitted that “it really clicked” when he heard his Mercedes engineer deliver one final ‘Hammer time’ radio message at the F1 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.

Hamilton bowed out of Mercedes with an incredible recoꦅvery to fini▨sh fourth at the Yas Marina Circuit.

The seven-time world champion overtook teammate168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: George Russell on th🐟e final lap with a daring pass around the outside.

Hamilto🍒n was spurred on by his race engineer and good friend, Pete൩r ‘Bono’ Bonnington.

Bono delivered th🍰e infamous ‘it’s Hammer time’ line as Hamilt🐓on recovered to finish fourth in Abu Dhabi.

Speaking to Sky Sports after the race, Hamilton reflected on it: “When he said it was ‘Hammer time’ I did notice in the moment ‘that’s the last I’m going to hear t🐟hat. It really clicked for me in that moment.

“Really, really hard race. Naturally from where 🤡I was. I didn’t get as great a start as this one here, my new teammate [Leclerc]. The first stint was really difficult. I wasn’t losing hope.

“I was just like ‘oh, not going as well as I thought it would’ but I didn’t give up, kept pushing. I was like ‘come on, we can get there’. Switched onto the different tyres,ꦑ and the car came alivꦉe.

“I had a massive gap to close, so just focused on gettin🌟g absolutely everything 𒀰from the car and not giving up.

“Wanted to finish on as much of a high, give every ounce of me to the team as they’ve given to 𒅌me all these years.”
