Britain’s Lewis Hamilton has been dominating the track ever since he joined Mercedes from Mclaren. The number 44 has won seven world titles and seems to be unstoppable.

Carlos Sainz stated that the entire Formula One has great respect for the Brit who has equaled Michael Schumacher’s title count, However, even though Sainz respects Hamilton himself, but has stated that he wants to beat him once he is in the car.

Hence the Spaniard thinks the Scuderia is his best shot at winning the title. He will make sure that he puts up a fight against the number 44 once they take to the track in the new year.

On the other hand, his teammate, Charles Leclerc said, “I have huge respect for everyone on the grid and Lewis has achieved so much in the sport, but when I put the helmet on I try to fight him as much as I do with anybody else on the grid.”
