Valtteri suffered a terrible season behind Lewis Hamilton in 2020 so far. However, it is not his fault he is driving alongside one of the all-time greats of the sport.

We cannot overlook his excellence as a driver just because he is P2. His win at Russia certifies his class. Although is burdened by constant pressure from Verstappen, the #77 prevails.

However, even after winning the race at Sochi, he had to deal with a lot of hate. The Instagram post that had a nasty comment developed into yet another user calling him out for displaying arrogance over the radio.

However, even earlier, Valtteri had explained his reasons back in an interview in 2019. He had been wonderful all throughout, and we believe he had the right to come back at his haters.

“Just for whom it may concern. Maybe they should look in the mirror sometimes and think actually why they do that. For me, it’s OK now,” declared the Finn, after he won the Australian Grand Prix in 2019.

Valtteri Bottas was optimistic about Russia since the very beginning. He knew that P3 on this track was lucky for him. Although many claim that luck played a major part in his win today, Bottas knew better.
