Lewis Hamilton Wins French Grand Prix

Over now to formula one where Lewis Hamilton emerged winner of the French grand prix to reclaim the world championship lead.  

The British driver is now 14 points ahead of Sebastian Vettel, who finished fifth.

Vettel collided at the first corner with Hamilton’s teammate Valtteri Bottas.

The German fought back through the field impressively but earned a five-second penalty for causing the crash, which put both drivers to the back of the field.

Hamilton was able to build a comfortable gap to red bull's Max Verstappen behind him in second place for the entire race and then cruise and conserve to the finish.

F1 moves to Austria next weekend, a power track where Ferrari and Mercedes will likely again be closely match, and picking a winner is impossible.
