In the interview with ESPN F1, the 22-year-old Lando was asked “Hamilton or Verstappen?”. To start with the answer, Norris laughed a bit and then took his time to answer the question. Meanwhile, he looked at his teammate McLaren Daniel Ricciardo in confusion. But after a prolonged thought, Norris finally picked his choice and it was none other than the Red Bull star Max Verstappen.

Why does it become difficult for everyone to choose between Lewis and Max?

There is no doubt that Max Verstappen and Lewis are two of the best drivers of this generation. While Lewis is one of the best of all time already, Max is on his way to greatness. Since the commencement of his F1 career in 2007, the driver 44 has picked up seven World championships and is currently looking for an eighth. Achieving this would allow him to have a one-up on Michael Schumacher, who also has 7 world titles to his name and is currently considered to be the all-time great.

Max on the other hand is quite young and promising. Having won his first world title last year, he became one of the youngest to do so. Although there were hints of a rivalry between the duo for a couple of seasons, things took a massive turn last year. Both the drivers fought till the very last lap to be crowned a champion.
