  "account": "Sao Paulo, November 6 — Lewis Hamilton expressed his ongoing frustration with events at Ferrari during the recent Mexico City Grand Prix, having not yet discussed the opening-lap clash that derailed their chances of a one-two finish. In the team's paddock before the Sao Paulo Grand Prix, the 41-year-old explained that team principal Fred Vasseur had returned to Italy between races, while his teammate Charles Leclerc had left for Monaco to spend time with his family following the birth of his first child. Hamilton admitted to being frustrated and stated that conversations would be had when the time was right. He praised Ferrari's performance this year, emphasizing their upgrades and the team's hard work to bridge the gap, but added that they could have secured a one-two, ideally in Mexico. Hamilton believed Leclerc had raced him more aggressively than other drivers, reacting affirmatively to a direct question but refusing to elaborate further. The team boss conceded that \"with hindsight\" he would have managed the team differently, without directly addressing the Mexico clash. Hamilton's 400th Grand Prix will be this Sunday's race at Interlagos. Reflecting on his achievements, Hamilton noted that his 300th race was the 2022 French Grand Prix, where he finished second behind Red Bull's Max Verstappen. He has been made an honorary citizen of Brazil, having won his first title there in 2007 and achieved three wins and seven podium finishes in 18 races.",
