French Grand Prix: Lewis Hamilton Regains World Championship Lead, Claims His First Win At Circuit Paul Ricard In 10 Years

Mercedes' Lewis Hamilton has regained the world championship lead after winning the race at Circuit Paul Ricard in Le Castellet, France on Sunday.
The Briton who won his 75 pole to claim the all-time most pole position on Saturday, cruised through from start to the finish line to win his first French GP in 10 years, as Red Bull's Max Verstappen finished in second place and Ferrari's Kimi Raikkonen made podium position in third place.
Meanwhile, starting off was not that pleasant for Hamilton's rival Sebastian Vettel who had a collision with Valterri Bottas at the first turn and was penalised five second for the incident.
