Lewis Hamilton ‘blown away’ as his Extreme E team pips Nico Rosberg to titleLewis Hamilton said he was “blown away” by a last-gasp comeback from his X44 Extreme E team that saw them win this year’s title in Uruguay on Sunday.
X44 carried a 17-point deficit to RXR heading into the final round of the year, with rally raid driver Gutierrez and nine-time World Rally Champion Loeb up against the odds to pull off a shock turnaround against Johan Kristoffersson and Mikaela Åhlin-Kottulinsky. With Loeb having gained five bonus points for clocking the fastest time of the weekend in the Continental Traction Challenge section of qualifying on Saturday, circumstances eventually left X44 needing a top-three finish in the final while RXR had to watch from the sidelines.
In sharing his delight at his team’s success, Hamilton wrote on his Instagram story after the X-Prix: “I am so blown away by this comeback after such a difficult day yesterday. The team rebuilding, staying positing and coming out fighting. Wow, I’m so proud of the team and these two amazing drivers.”
