Lando Norris started the Miami Grand Prix from fifth position on the grid. He had a remarkable day at the Miami Street Circuit, securing his first win in the sport. The world has been praising Norris, and Lewis Hamilton, another British driver, also showed his appreciation.
After the grueling 57-lap race, Hamilton joined Norris in his W15 car. He clapped and gave a thumbs up to Norris while inside the cockpit. This reaction from the seven-time world champion has caught the attention of fans worldwide. The emotional moment resonated with fans, leading to a significant response to the viral video.
Hamilton has always been known for recognizing and supporting young talents. His recent actions towards Norris are not surprising, as his loyal fans are aware of the kind-hearted person Hamilton is and how he never misses an opportunity to acknowledge young drivers who are making their mark in Formula 1.
While Hamilton created an emotional moment at the end of the race, he also reflected on his own performance during the post-race interview. Starting from eighth position, Hamilton managed to finish in sixth place. Towards the end of the race, he was closely behind the RB20.
Hamilton stated, “In today’s race, I had some exciting battles out there. I pushed to the limit and made some impressive overtakes. We were challenging Red Bull towards the end, and it was great to compete against them.”
The Mercedes F1 team has faced significant challenges with their 2024 car since the beginning of the season. Hamilton has been critical of the car on several occasions. However, after seeing the performance in Miami, he has gained some confidence for the future. Mercedes now has a total of 64 points in the Constructors’ Championship.
