Hamilton used the tow to latch on to the back of Ferrari on the 210mph drag to Turn 12, and, assisted by DRS, drew alongside Sainz before sliding underneath the Spaniard passy

Asked if he could complete another five laps on his current set of tyres, Hamilton replied: “I am not sure, man passy
It is pretty tough passy
