Hamilton: I mishandled Alonso back in 2007

Lewis Hamilton concedes mistakes were made during his first year at McLaren where he “misinterpreted and misunderstood” the situation when he came up against double World Champ Fernando Alonso.
The animosity between the two 2007 McLaren drivers reached fever point during qualifying at the Hungarian GP where underhanded tactics in the pits came to the fore.
At the time, Alonso accused the team of favouring Hamilton by “holding me back”, although the race stewards had a different view point and stripped the Spaniard of pole position, effectively handing it to Hamilton.
