Hamilton hit a barrier and managed to only blow a tire 4 turns from the pits. Call it what you want I call it lucky.
Then he got a great break with a safety car shortly thereafter and was able to catch back up with the front leaders.
If your a Kimi fan this race ruined your day, first his team screws up and gets the tires on too late, he is ordered a drive through right after a safety car period (the same one that got hammy in the race) and then he got to fight back up.
It looked to me like Kimi got sideways in the same exact spot a DC did the day before. I felt horrible for Sutil he deserved that 5th place finish, although I felt if Kimi did not turn sideways and hit him he would have been passed him shortly.
It was a fun race lots of action lots of passing, lots of bad passing, great race nonetheless.
