Lewis Hamilton rages at ‘dangerous’ Fernando Alonso during Hungarian Grand Prix

“I’m obviously a little bit disappointed because I felt I was faster for the majority of the race,” Vettel said.

“But he didn’t make a single mistake. I pushed very hard.”

After finishing third Hamilton said: “Firstly I want to congratulate Esteban, he’s been a shining star for such a long time now. It’s been a long time coming and I’m really happy for him. It’s also great to see Aston Martin up there – their best result so far, and I know there’s more to come.

“Today was definitely tough, we always make it difficult for ourselves. It’s crazy to think we were the only ones on the grid at the start but these things happen, and we learn from them. I gave it everything, and I had nothing left at the end.
