Before Sochi, if anyone would have asked if I thought Hamilton stood a chance to win after Qualifying or at the end of the first lap, the answer would have been no. Sometimes this sport can be so tricky and experience can be so important. The rain and bad calls from less experienced drivers who were ahead such as Lando gave Hamilton the chance to, as the narrator said, “enter the race as a gladiator” and leave a centurion”.
