Mercedes ace driver Lewis Hamilton had yet another day at podium as he grabbed the Belgium Grand Prix top most position.
The English driver is pacing fastly towards Michael Schumacher’s record and in this season has ruled in five Grand Prixs, marking 89 victories of his career.
Post his victory, Hamilton talked about the difficulty he faced during the race and how he coped up with it as he stated: “It wasn’t the easiest of races. The tyre temperatures were slowly dropping. It was a bit of a struggle. No matter how much success we have we keep our heads down. It’s an incredible mentality to work around”.

Lewis also dedicated his Belgium track victory to Hollywood actor Chadwick Boseman aka Black Panther who passed away due to colon cancer last Friday.
Posting two pictures on his social media handle with #BlackLivesMatter, Hamilton wrote, “It’s been an emotional weekend, I want to dedicate this win to Chad and his family, he was such an inspiration and his legacy will live on. I’m posting this image because we must continue to fight for equality, nothing has changed yet and the battle continues.”
