Hamilton criticized his team on the radio: "I will not apologize for it."

Lewis Hamilton demanded a tactical position swap during the Miami Grand Prix, which can be approved from the pit wall. Well, this happened with quite a delay, which really frustrated the British driver...

The seven-time world champion was burning with anger and didn't hold back on the radio, which later earned him both praise and criticism:

"I don't know what they'll write about this incident, but I didn't feel like I was being disrespectful. I just wanted the guys to hurry up, because the fire is burning inside me, and because I want to win. And I really won't apologize for that! Winning is my goal, and everyone in the team knows that...

Fred came over after the race and tried to calm me down, saying: chill out, don't be so sensitive! The truth is that I could have said much worse things than what others have done in the past. I felt this was more sarcasm than insults. Everyone should understand that there is incredible pressure on us during the races. One never speaks in the calmest manner in the heat of battle, but I think this was okay." - Hamilton reflected.
