Hamilton wants revenge on Vettel

Lewis Hamilton was as fast as Sebastian Vettel during the last qualifying session of the Canadian Grand Prix but the driver Mercedes finally bowed less than a tenth behind the Red Bull by making an error on his last flying lap where the drizzle fell in the last sector of the Gilles Villeneuve circuit. “It’s a good thing to be back on the front row but I’m a little disappointed with my last lap. I had a seven-tenths lead going into the last corner which was very slippery and unfortunately I went straight. I would have lost time here anyway because the track was really wet, but I could have had a chance to take pole. »

However, Lewis Hamilton does not let himself be discouraged by this first duel lost against the three-time world champion. The Briton intends to take the advantage over the poleman of the Canadian Grand Prix provided that the weather works in his favor this time. “Tomorrow should be a good day for us. There car seemed competitive yesterday in the dry. So I'm crossing my fingers that the rain stays away from the race and thus hope to give Seb his due. We have a good car and I feel confident here. So, let's see what we can do tomorrow. »
