Hamilton: 'Keeping Verstappen behind us at the start very important'

Thanks to his fantastic qualifying yesterday, Lewis Hamilton has the chance to win his 100th race today. An unprecedented number of course, something that could become a reality in Hungary this afternoon.

During the drivers' parade, he says he is honored to have this opportunity at all.

Hamilton, like Bottas, will start on the medium tyre, while Verstappen and Perez will start on the soft tyre. This should be to the Dutchman's advantage at the start, Hamilton also knows.

Hamilton will be looking to catch up with Verstappen once again in Hungary, while the Dutchman will be hoping for rain and a win to extend his lead a little further before the summer break.
