(CNN) Lewis Hamilton was the chief beneficiary of a late puncture suffered by his Mercedes teammate Valtteri Bottas as he clinched his first win of the season at Sunday's action-packed Azerbaijan Grand Prix. It forced the Finn out of the race and handed the lead to Hamilton with just three laps remaining. Bottas' misfortune gave Hamilton an unexpected victory as he bids to become just the third driver to win five world championships. "This is a track where luck is needed, there are a lot of safety cars and a lot of incidents." "We are thankful we are allowed to race, myself and Max love to race as we show," said Ricciardo.
