Lewis Hamilton has said that he's “so proud” of Mercedes after they won a record-setting eighth consecutive championship in a tense 2021 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix finale.

在阿布扎比的2021賽季收官站后，漢密爾頓表示，他對(duì)車隊(duì)在如此激烈的競(jìng)爭(zhēng)下取得廠商八連冠感到“無(wú)比驕傲”

“I think we did an amazing job this year,” began Hamilton. “My team, everyone back at the factory, all the men and women, we worked so hard this year. It’s been the most difficult of seasons and I’m so proud of them, so grateful to be a part of the journey with them, and we gave it everything.

“我認(rèn)為今年所有人都棒極了，”漢密爾頓說(shuō)道，“車隊(duì)，工廠里的大家今年都工作的那么賣力。今年是最艱難的一季，我為他們自豪，對(duì)他們充滿感激。我們竭盡了全力。”

“This last part of the season we gave it absolutely everything, and we never gave up – that’s the most important thing,” he added after Mercedes’ title win.

“我們?yōu)榱诉@賽季的收尾付出了全部精力，一直都沒(méi)放棄，這才是最關(guān)鍵的?！庇?guó)人補(bǔ)充道。

Team mate Valtteri Bottas added that this was a “huge achievement” by the team, as he now prepares to head to Alfa Romeo in 2022.

隊(duì)友博塔斯也說(shuō)，對(duì)于車隊(duì)，這是項(xiàng)了不起的成就。不過(guò)接下去，芬蘭人就要調(diào)整自己，投入到阿爾法羅密歐的新賽季準(zhǔn)備中了。

Mercedes have protested the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix final classification, citing a breach of two articles in the Sporting Regulations.?

與此同時(shí)，奔馳對(duì)阿布扎比末段國(guó)際汽聯(lián)的判罰提出了兩次抗議，指責(zé)對(duì)方公然違反了兩天競(jìng)賽規(guī)章。

One was “against the classification established at the end of the Competition, alleged breach of Article 48.12 of the 2021 FIA Formula One Sporting Regulations.”

其中之一為，“最后階段比賽重啟時(shí)，車手之間排位有誤，違反了2021國(guó)際汽聯(lián)競(jìng)賽規(guī)章第48.12條。”

That rule reads: “If the clerk of the course considers it safe to do so, and the message ‘LappED CARS MAY NOW OVERTAKE’ has been sent to all Competitors via the official messaging system, any cars that have been lapped by the leader will be required to pass the cars on the lead lap and the Safety Car.

規(guī)章寫(xiě)到：“若賽道干事認(rèn)為賽道安全，且官方對(duì)眾車隊(duì)發(fā)布’套圈車輛可以超車’之指令，所有被套圈車輛將需要超過(guò)其他車輛及安全車。”

“This will only apply to cars that were lapped at the time they crossed the Line at the end of the lap during which they crossed the first Safety Car line for the second time after the Safety Car was deployed.

“該條例僅適用于，在安全車出動(dòng)后，第二次駛過(guò)安全車線后，并在該圈沖線時(shí)依舊落后一圈的賽車?！?/p>

“Having overtaken the cars on the lead lap and the Safety Car these cars should then proceed around the track at an appropriate speed, without overtaking, and make every effort to take up position at the back of the line of cars behind the Safety Car.

“在超過(guò)其他車輛及安全車后，此部分賽車必須在速度適當(dāng)，不進(jìn)行互相超越的情況下，盡快返回安全車后的車陣，并依次排列在安全車后?！?/p>

“Whilst they are overtaking, and in order to ensure this may be carried out safely, the cars on the lead lap must always stay on the racing line unless deviating from it is unavoidable.

“在被套圈車輛進(jìn)行超越，并努力保證上述規(guī)則安全施行的過(guò)程中，領(lǐng)先車輛若非情勢(shì)不得已，必須保持在賽車線上。”

“Unless the clerk of the course considers the presence of the Safety Car is still necessary, once the last lapped car has passed the leader the Safety Car will return to the pits at the end of the following lap.

“除非干事認(rèn)為安全車帶領(lǐng)依舊有必要，一旦被套圈車輛超過(guò)后，安全車將在下一圈結(jié)束時(shí)返回維修區(qū)?！?/strong>
