The Knight weighs in about his championship fight against Verstappen

The 2021 season has been an intense one so far, particularly the title fight between Red Bull’s Max Verstappen and Hamilton. There were two incidents that defined their rivalry, the crash at Silverstone and the one at Monza. The Mercedes driver revealed they haven’t interacted a lot this year, but hopes to put on a good fight against the Dutch driver.

Speaking to Formula1.nl as quoted from GPblog, Hamilton said, “Some drivers interact more than others. We just said ‘hi’ last year, we still do that now so that hasn’t changed.”

‘“It’s important to win all the races. We need to maximize our points over the next six races. There will be times when we can beat them, but in Mexico, they can be strong again. A lot can happen in six races, we will take it race by race,” Hamilton concluded.
