With eight consecutive victories a considerable lead in the standings, Max Verstappen outrageously dominates the Formula 1 world championship. But British driver Lewis Hamilton says that if he had the opportunity to sit in the car of Sergio Pérez, teammate of Dutch at Red Bull, things would go differently for the reigning double world champion.

“Do I want to be as fast as them? Of course. Would I like to have a car as fast as theirs? Of course. Do I know that if I was in Sergio’s car, it wouldn’t be like this for Max? Of course, “said Hamilton, seven-time world champion, at the microphone of Canal.

Not sure that Sergio Pérez, who is 125 points behind Verstappen and lives under the threat of a change of seat operated by Red Bull, appreciates the exit of the Briton. The latter ended up being more philosophical: “I think it is through the adversity that we encounter with the team that we build and strengthen ourselves. It is a unique experience. One day we will return to the fight.”
