Hamilton has hopes for Red Bull: "Everyone wants to see us all compete together"

Lewis Hamilton is eager to take his seventh world title in Formula 1, but if it was up to the Brit, there will be some more fights on the track with Valtteri Bottas and Max Verstappen. The Mercedes driver hopes for more exciting Grands Prix than that of Belgium.

"As soon as the start was done and the restart, you generally know that I don’t make too many mistakes, and the same with these drivers, they’re very very consistent," Hamilton said during the press conference when asked whether Mercedes' dominance is a positive for Formula 1.

Not much happened at Spa-Francorchamps, so it was not a spectacular Sunday afternoon. "It’s very difficult to overtake in this circuit so I can imagine, it’s definitely not the most exciting. I feel exactly the same as Max; it wasn’t the most exciting battle. I generally really enjoy myself in the car because if you don’t enjoy the moment, what’s the point in doing in it. I’m still enjoying the battle. Every time I come through turn 15, I look in my mirror, I see where Valtteri is, whether he’s closer or further behind, taking in the knowledge of what times he’s doing, the gaps between him and Max and really trying to get a perfect balance each and every single lap," Hamilton continues.

Hamilton on more struggles

Hamilton argues that this is still a huge challenge for him, but that he understands fans hope to see a different kind of Formula 1. "It’s perhaps not as fun for people to watch but when you’re in it; it’s a little bit different. But of course, I would love to have a real race. I’ve definitely had races in the past here which are a little bit closer, trying to follow the Ferrari and stay on top of them but they could overtake because they had all that extra power. I think the Red Bulls have improved. I really hope that we have more of a race because I think everyone wants to see us all battling together," the six-time world champion concluded.
