I guess Leclerc was jealous Hamilton got the pole so he made sure he neither of them would win.

Brilliant.
 
What I find most impressive about Kimi is that he has only been racing for 5 years. Apparently, he did not start as a very young kid. Absolute talent.
 
He did it without being an asshole. Didn’t run anyone off the track. Wasn’t on the radio bitching constantly that someone cut him off, didn’t leave him any room, bitching about race steward decisions…
Kept his head down and got in with it. Dude is a sponsors dream.

I'm reading different, that he started karting in 2014 at age 7, that his dad was heavily involved in motor sports, but that he showed huge raw talent right from the start.
 
Me too. Karting since early childhood (7) which makes sense, given his dad's history.

Agreed. So nice to see somebody win the Championship with pure talent rather than pushing the limits to the rules, bullying others and whining constantly, I may be old fashioned about it, but I prefer to see somebody win with their talent rather than from exploiting absolutely everything and anything.
 
Verstappen drive a great race and unlike Hamilton, didn't burn up his intermediates in the first stint.
