Lewis Hamilton refused to apologise for his sarcastic exchanges with his Ferrari team in the Miami Grand Prix, insisting he was only panicking because he is ‘a fighter’.
The seven-time world champion was frustrated as his pit wall took their time responding to his request for team-mate Charles Leclerc to let him through.
Hamilton finished eighth, having started 12th, and Leclerc seventh in a race won by Oscar Piastri with Lando Norris second in an ultra-dominant McLaren one-two.
