Hamilton says battling through the field at Monza was 'a thousand times' more enjoyable than taking an easy F1 win.
After starting from the back due to an engine penalty, Hamilton had a frustrating first lap in Monza and was still 19th at the end of it.for fourth when the late safety car neutralised the race."It's a thousand times more enjoyable, battling with people," he said."When I started my first go-kart was like an old kart, it was all bent and buckled, and we always had to start at the back, with old tyres. And that's what I've always enjoyed doing.
"And so starting today, just having those battles is way more fun than starting first and pulling away. It's a different challenge. But I much prefer the battling with people. "When you when you win it's something completely different, and you feel proud for everybody. I love the idea of moving forward. So today I felt like I climbed up a ladder. Progress is a good thing.""I didn't touch with anybody, I don't think," he said."But I saw some bits flying off other people's cars hit mine. And I think that damage the front flap over the tyre. Those things I don't even know what they're for.
