BUDAPEST, Aug 1 — Seven-times world champion Lewis Hamilton said he doesn’t have to resort to “gamesmanship” to beat Formula One title rival Max Verstappen after backing up the Red Bull driver on his way to pole position in qualifying for the Hungarian Grand Prix.

Verstappen began his flying lap with just seconds left on the clock but Perez couldn’t cross the line to start his final attempt before the chequered flag was waved. But the Briton, who was booed by Verstappen’s orange-clad supporters immediately after qualifying, drew criticism from other quarters, with Frenchman Romain Grosjean who drove for the Haas team last year tweeting: “If that was made on purpose, it’s not pretty.”

“I’m not playing any tactics. I don’t need to play no tactics, man. I know what I’m doing in the car, I’m fast enough. I don’t need to add tactics.
