Hamilton referred to Senna's famous ''going for a gap' quote after his incident with Perez in the BelgianGP sprint race. F1
Lewis Hamilton says his contact with Sergio Perez in the rain-hit Formula 1 sprint at Spa “wasn’t intentional” and that it was a “racing incident.”driver also referenced Ayrton Senna’s famous quote about no longer being a racing driver if you don’t go for a gap.
That dropped him from fourth place on the road to seventh in the final sprint results, while he also received two penalty points. “I think I went for a gap, he was slow going through Turn 14, I went on the inside, I was more than half a car length up the inside, and if you're not going for a gap then you're no longer racing as Ayrton always said. That's what I did.
"In a race like today honestly I don't really care too much,” he said. “You don't get many points. Of course it would have been nice to finish fourth, but I don't really care to finish fourth, I want to win! So it's fourth, seventh, it doesn't really make a difference.", who was up ahead in third place:"With the collision I had floor damage, so I lost a lot of downforce on the floor.
