Hill, who has put his money on Ferrari’s Kimi Raikkonen, said: “If you had asked me before Sunday who I’d put my money on, I would have said Lewis. But I would want my bet back now. I’d be saying, ‘Wait a moment, that Ferrari looks strong’. I’d put my money on Raikkonen.”
Hamilton missed out on the drivers’ crown by a point last year after Raikkonen overturned a 17-point deficit in the last two races. But the McLaren ace increased his lead in Budapest this weekend when Felipe Massa’s Ferrari engine blew up with three laps to go.
The Brazilian will start eight points behind Hamilton when the battle resumes at Valencia’s new street circuit on August 24.
