Williams technical chief Paddy Lowe believes that newly crown champion Lewis Hamilton is a better racer than Michael Schumacher. Lowe worked with the Formula One world champion at McLaren and Mercedes. Mercedes driver Hamilton celebrated his fourth title last weekend after Sebastian Vettel failed to finish in the top two at the Mexican Grand Prix. He’ll be out to secure another as he looks to chase down Michael Schumacher’s record of seven.

Hamilton has been compared to F1 greats, including Ayrton Senna, Alain Prost and Juan Manuel Fangio over the past week. Lowe says Hamilton’s racecraft may be out on its own, even in comparison to the likes of Schumacher and Senna.
