Hamilton beat Vettel in paddock

So much has been happened on the Monza weekend that the F1 fraternity is still recovering from all the stories around it.

Kimi Raikkonen’s historic lap during qualifying, a Ferrari front row lockout, the Hamilton-Vettel crash, the Hamilton masterstroke and the Bottas-Verstappen incident.

And while we thought that the on track incidents would be more than enough to satiate every fan’s lust for F1 action, the paddock whispers have added to the excitement, with news about Leclerc’s deal to Ferrari and Kubica returning to F1 springing up as well.

A lot of the action has been around the two contenders for this year’s WDC, Vettel and Hamilton, and how Vettel’s mistakes have led to him being 30 points adrift in the driver’s standings.

Vettel hasn’t been calm during race situations, making errors that can’t be afforded when you are dealing with someone as good as Lewis Hamilton.

Hamilton on the other hand seems a little more determined this season, especially because Ferrari has a better package. The Brit’s calmness during crunch situations is also something that needs to be commended.

Now, a video has surfaced on social media today, wherein before the Italian GP, Vettel can be seen running around the paddock with a tense look on his face and Hamilton, in a very nonchalant way is passing him by on his two wheel scooter(sporting a smile on his face at the time).

Check out the video:

Twitter had a good laugh at the video, coming up with various funny tweets around the Monza crash and how Hamilton used the slipstream in the pitlane to overtake his no.1 rival.

With the Singapore GP set for the next weekend, do you think Vettel can overcome his demons and initiate another surge to dethrone Hamilton off the top of the driver standings charts.
