Brawn: "I don't have enough superlatives to describe him"

Ross Brawn is full of praise for Lewis Hamilton who took his eighth victory at the Hungaroring last Sunday. With this eighth victory he equals a record of Michael Schumacher. Schumacher and he are the only two drivers who managed to win eight times on the same track.

"There’s just something about Lewis Hamilton and the Hungaroring. The driver and track work in perfect harmony – and not even the weather could stop him taking another dominant victory and snatching the championship lead", Brawn begins in his column at Formula1.com.

"I’m running out of superlatives to describe Lewis, so consistently impressive has the Mercedes driver been since he joined the Silver Arrows. In Hungary this weekend, he was utterly dominant", Brawn continues.

Brawn finds it most impressive that Hamilton is able to leave everything behind in a time that has moved for him as soon as the lights go out and the race starts. According to Brawn many other drivers would be distracted during a Grand Prix.

"He has been at the forefront of the push for greater diversity and inclusion in this sport. He believes in this essential cause and is doing everything in his power to create change. And alongside that, he is performing at the peak of his ability, week in, week out, during his day job. He is a remarkable individual", concludes Brawn.
