Hamilton on no1

McLaren's headquarters in Woking told Dennis on the pit wall in Hockenheim to keep Hamilton on track after Timo Glock had wrecked his Toyota in a spectacular accident on lap 35.lthough 11 other drivers pitted once allowed to do so, including team-mate Heikki Kovalainen, Hamilton stayed out behind the safety car that had been deployed.ut to great surprise within McLaren, it remained on track longer than expected, throwing the team's plans into near disarray.When Hamilton did pit 17 laps from home, he returned to the circuit in fifth place, but he then produced a rousing drive to take the chequered flag.McLaren boss Dennis, who initially apologised to Hamilton over the team radio at the end of the race for making it "a little more difficult" for him, said: "There are two aspects to it."If you do one thing with one car, and something else with another, then one of the decisions is going to be right."At the time the safety car came out we had more than enough fuel t do a few safety laps and then pull out a lead.
