VIDEO: Hamilton celebrates Monaco win with a dive into the pool!

Martin Macdonald

Lewis Hamilton celebrated his hard-fought victory at the Monaco Grand Prix on Sunday by taking a dive into the swimming pool near the track, in a similar fashion to Daniel Ricciardo who also took a dip after winning in Monte Carlo in the 2018 edition of the race.

The world champion started the GP in pole position and never surrendered the top spot despite fighting not only against the attentions of Max Verstappen in second, but increasingly ravaged tyres which he was forced to last longer than Mercedes would have liked.

During the race, Hamilton could be heard furiously asking the Mercedes engineers if he should come in for a pitstop due to the disintegrating tyres, complaining that the wrong tyres were selected in the first place.

His comments became slightly heated, but all the anger went away after he cooled off with a leap into the swimming pool.
