ABU DHABI -- Lewis Hamilton has labelled the Yas Marina Circuit as one of the worst for overtaking in Formula One after spending the vast majority of Sunday's Abu Dhabi Grand Prix stuck behind teammate Valtteri Bottas.
Hamilton finished second to Bottas after Mercedes dominated the race ahead of main rivals Ferrari. He closed in on his teammate following the single round of pit stops and again when Bottas made a mistake at Turn 5 with six laps remaining, but was unable to find a way past.
"You get a bit of a tow down the straight but once you get to the last sector, it's a great track but unfortunately it doesn't suit the cars very well," he said.
