Another Chance To Look Back At When Lewis Hamilton Won His 100th Race At The Russian Grand Prix…!
MANY CONGRATULATIONS TO SEVEN-TIMES WORLD CHAMPION LEWIS HAMILTON WHO WON HIS 100TH RACE AT THE RUSSIAN GRAND PRIX ON 26TH SEPTEMBER 2021…! HIGHLIGHTS OF THE RUSSIAN GRAND PRIX 2021 IT WAS A SUPERB RACE, BECAUSE IT HAD BEEN RAINING THE DAY BEFORE AND THE CONDITIONS HAD BEEN SLIPPERY SO NOBODY REALLY KNEW HOW IT WOULD ALL PAN OUT. (INDEED, LEWIS HAD SKIDDED OFF THE TRACK THE DAY BEFORE AND DAMAGED HIS FRONT WING.) BUT THE CLOUDS PARTED AND THE SUNLIGHT POURED IN AT THE BEGINNING OF THE RACE, ALLOWING THE DRIVERS TO LINE-UP, RARING TO GO.
