Bottas and Lewis had and still do have a great friendship, it was the Mercedes team who ruined his experience. He still speaks with high praise of Lewis and they are the closest to each other on the grid even with new teammates

I always had respect for Checo, when he started showing skills(saving tyres) whilst driving for Sauber..

So this is how propaganda works.

People act like Lewis just showed up and win championships like Ferrari or redbull over the years have not been down to the wire with him even lost by one point one year with how close it was not just his team mates

What I saw from this video is most drivers respect Lewis driving and what he achieved. But few drivers will go "Hay mate let's go for drink".

It takes a high level of skill to stay at a competitive level for long enough to develop the car around your style and over that time it will get better and better. If his car was the fastest that is also due to him being consistently able to deal with that car

I love how Brits can’t resist slandering Max. Lovely little jab there at the end.

When you’re in a clickbait challenge and your opponent is small f1 UKpostsrs

The British never missing a chance to take cheap shots at anyone who isn’t one of them 😂. Anyone who has seen Verstappen actually speak about any driver on the grid he has respected what they have accomplished.

Lewis got where he is because he is just that good. People say it's the car but you do not get that type of seat without being able to fill it.

I'm not sure, but I was at the Abu Dhabi grand prix in 2016 and can remember the drivers on the parade truck before the race. Hamilton was sitting on his own and away from the others, so not sure whether that spoke volumes or not!

Yeah he attacked Ocon who was one lap behind and pushed him of the track causing him to lose a certain victory that race. Max responded high with adreline and being very angry and imho rightfully so. Yes he shouldn't have pushed Ocon but we have seen simular things in the past with other drivers haven't we? But since Max is the rival to UK press favorite, they cannot help to remind us of that moment over and over and over without mentioning why ofcourse.

verstappen talks shit about hamilton then expects his respect, he just cant stop acting like a child

Predictably, you start the Hamilton-Alonso feud with the 10 seconds delay at the pits, not what happened earlier or what Ron Dennis did to Fernando. Keep up the great work, buddy.

Nando always says it how it is, no politically correct answers. I love him for it.

It is crazy for Fernando to say Lewis only fought his teammates, he probably only watched 2018-2020 😅

Crashstappen says it all. He is racing nobody. Lewis had intense racing with all his team mates in the same machinery and beat them. He can fight hard and dirty but closer to the rules than Verstappen. Listen to Rosberg now and how he praises him now and how amazing he was. He beats people mentally and skillfully. He had Max beat in Abu Dhabi particularly and Brazil. Everyone knows it. It took a lucky situation for crashstappen to win. He still proves it now at his age and I have to say better than Schumacher did against Rosberg.

The young drivers clearly do not dare to speak their mind. They would be torn to pieces by the british media.

Sorry, but this is clickbait.. it sounds more like a hate campaign or one way street in the end.

well the tone has set with this (sad) video...., hoping for a nice season this year in F1

A reasonably good presentation spoil by a childish dig at Max without provocation. As a respected commentator, you meed to avoid childish comments in future.

I have clicked on the end screen video for like 5 times in a row.

Do the stars begin with C and end in T if so I agree

"that's some statement Lando" what are you gonna say to that question? no im just gonna park it in the wall at turn one for 20 races

Lewis Hamilton might win one or two races next year but when max is still in a read bull Lewis stands no chance of another championship.

ALONSO's comment about an "alternate lifestyle" is a dig about P Diddy Lewis and Smith !

This video was sponsored by the SLH fundation .

My dad found out that Lewis Hamilton is my cousin. I haven't met before but i won't let that slide.

Only time will tell if Max's knowledge of hitting apexes will give him the number of championships that Lewis has.

The idea of a competition in the same car might not work. Lewis prefers a car with a tied down front end and Max wants the car opposite that. So I don't think they would do well in the same car.

Just imagine Hamilton and Verstappen on the same team

well im not surprised, in my friend group we listed some of our personal fav and hated drivers, hamilton was on 0 fav lists but he was on every hate listxDDDDDD

the presenter said "his style" but the quote was "his lifestyle" . hmmm..... LH is a very talented driver but you take away his top tier car and well you get a very talented driver who hasn't won a race in a long time. #grateful

Valteri’s beef is with the team, not Hamilton.

Alonso: "we have a this respectful relationship" Yeah right. also Alonso: "What an idiot! This guy only knows how to drive starting first" LOL

He is the most envied DRIVER

as usual alonso has a valid point

Do we hate him, because we can't beat him? What do other people think?

If they all used the same car , many drivers would be faster and better than ham , he is only good because he had the advantage of having the fastest car for years

Classic British media. Blame Alonso for the Hungary indecent after Hamilton was the one who broke protocol to gain an advantage over Alonso.

It seems to me that a good solution for F1 would be to say that they only pay the top ten teams. Any team that finishes lower get no money. Reject that Toto.

Never will, and I don't think LH cares!!! He thought the rookie was going to bow down on him!!

He still higher than the other and his skill also better than some drivers so it's means he would have many rivals and want to beat him, not surprise on it.

Nelson called Lulu what he is!

That was a B*tch move by Alonso for holding up his team mate.

It's awesome to hear people thinks he's good.

2009,2010,2011,2012,2013, 2016,2022,2023 in 2022 lewis felt what everyone else felt for the last 8 years - not easy if you don't have an enormous advantage which began years before any other team. In similar machinery the advantage isn't there anymore.

The constructors points were removed because of the Ferrari scandal in 2007. You only researched F1 instead of watching it?

This type of analysis is pure gossip, no substance and denigrating.

Alonso never lost to Lewis in the same car, they ended equal on points in 07

Let the drivers talk and prove this. This is just Clickbait.

im not suprised on boottas opinion he was with mercedes for 5 years and really treated unfairly

Teammates who hated Hamilton, and even said it, when they did not control what came out of their mouth: Alonso Rosberg Bottas Teammates who had a problem with Hamilton's behavior and ego Button Teammates who were just there: Kovalainen TBD: Russell

Nobody cares what lewis thinks.

No matter how good Max is in driving a fast car, his personality is just as shitty as Sauber's pitstop

Fernando is jealous as always

Hamilton even out of there and you never will be Schumacher’s racing somebody

Bottas was hired to be a second driver, to always give way to Hamilton. His manager at the time, Toto Wolff, saw to that.

Odd cause post 2021 robbery or not. Alonso said something to the fact of, "it should be both Maxs and Lewis title." As if to say Lewis deserves it just as much.

Senna... Shumacher... Hamilton... Verstppen... Who will be next? My guess is Max, for a while.

Max you are the BEST❤❤❤❤

This should read, What do drivers think of Max.

hes neither racing verstappen or vettel nowadays

There was a difference in the car, believe me. See what's happening to Russell now in july 2023.

Haa. Umm, inter-team battles in NOT the reason McLaren didn’t win the constructors in 2007. McLaren outscored Ferrari on the year but still didn’t win.

I used to like Hamilton when he was a McLaren driver. But I realize the guy is egomaniac, probablly too much success made him like that, I don;t know. Max is really what I hate the most.

I am a huge Lewis fan. I've never really cheered for him and I was happy when Nico won because I thought he disserved a championship. But I find Lewis is generally very polite and generous with his comments. He didn't launch into a bashing tirade when his 8th championship was clearly stolen from him and there is no arguing he's probably the only one who can compete car to car with Max right now, although George and Charles are very close. I'm an Aston Martin fan and I'll be cheering for them this year but I'd sure like to see Lewis win his 8th.

Coming from Max , someone with a charisma bypass is not a sledge.

Very British. Very sad journalism. Not being honest. Not telling the entire story. Make a video about who lewis disrespects, especially in the early years of his career. This kind of journalism makes me sick. Goodbye...

So youre just going to ignore all yhe horseshit Hamilton was doing to Alonso BEFORE he made him wait in the pits?

@UntoldF1 You very conveniently omitted the truth behind Hungaroring 2007 when Hamilton deliberately denied Fernando Alonso the latter's turn to burn off fuel prior to qualifying. As renown journalists of the sport have summarised, it was a double-cross and it started the chain of events that day which arguably extended to the rest of their eventual relationship. I wonder why? Needless to say I shan't be subscribing nor looking in again.

i as a soft Swede i agree with Alonso all day long regarding Hamilton.

I think you can be the undisputed best but also an idiot, nobody is perfect and sparking opposing opinions is only natural

Sour grapes

4 to 5 wins gifted by Bottas

Some massive propaganda here

There's no denying Hamilton is a good driver, but he's made a fool of himself on more than one occasion. Taking the knee, and wearing a chain around his neck to name but two. I get the impression that he doesn't have many friends amongst his fellow drivers.

Multiple winners are never popular,unless its with their own crowd.max's time will pass just like hamiltons and then he'll get abuse from everyone for his driving etc.and its only the best cars that win championships.

United Nations condemned Uk for not addressing Racism

Always trying to get people upset. Such a shame

No body is an idiot, I think ...

His a cry baby! Remember Lewis drove 40000 km/t in McLaren before he joined formel 1. Alonso were objectively treated bad by McLaren. And just to correct it. They had exactly the same amount of points one point short of Kimi

A very one sided version

This video provides a service bc it provides a perfectly emblematic profile of how Lewis is treated by Sky1 and the larger media. It is biased and thus untrustworthy.

This business of introducing the next video should stop... I've been stuck watching video after video out of curiosity

You got that spot on Max

Well Lewis cant have the same respect Verstappen has for him because Verstappens championships are due to his downfall which we know wasnt all that fair.

The biggest comeback from Hamilton is his hairline

Alonso reeks of jealousy when it comes to SLH44.

Working and competing with Hamilton and up to some level with mercedes is obviously toxic. Personal trainers, team mates, opponents, officials, girlfriends, opinions, politics and Lewis's his own mindset all had their fair share of drama and abuse in the last few years. Maybe its because everyone realises Lewis's may not be as talented as they thought and Lewis fitted a certain woke "picture". Thats why Fernando, Lando, Charles and Max are probably loved more by the current generation and in particular the non-brits, as with them its only about racing. The last few years the barrage of mercedes and Lewis drama's just look silly, childish and suspect. But hey ... the british bias needs controversy to fill the "papers" and like Brexit, all brits just believe what their papers say.

So many people talk about Senna as a racing God, perhaps rightfully so but he had his flaws too and another thing, if you must separate Senna, Schumi and Ham, well like it or not but it must be said that only 1 in that group actively took a decision to leave a winning formula to join a SF on a serious downslope. Yes had the argument with many and especially Brits, no disrespect but it is true nevertheless no matter how you may feel about that reality. Senna too just like Ham did seek the winning formula and his move to Mercedes was not at all like he propose it to have been in media when asked about it. It was in fact another Brit, one that I personally have got a ton of respect for that persuaded Ham to go join Mercedes, Ross Brawn made that happen. Ross convinced Ham about the resources they put into development of the new rule change and Merc surely did not throw everything at it, they did not turn invincible just cause they had more good engineers onboard even though they bought up a lot of them, who else ran 2 engine concepts before the rules where set? People need to stop being naive and realize a lot is about being connected, powerful, able to throw their weight around, influence. Then when FIA lock down the rules quite hard and you're a miles ahead the result will be what we saw, Schumi abandon that card willingly to try to rebuild something terribly broken, similar to what Mercedes had post 2014, mad respect for that kind of bravery when all you care about it winning and the clock is ticking with no insurance of anything. Senna tried hard to flip between Mclaren and Williams, he was unlucky that Williams lost their technical advantage and ended up in a difficult passive suspension car in 1994. All 3 amazing drivers in their own right, technical and great yet different and mad respect to all 3, just think Schumi get the bad end of the stick too many times by simplified arguments not based in reality when imho he took a braver decision than the others. That Mercedes was going to make it to at least provide a fighting chance was given imho and Ham left a team on the downslope, the new era coming was pretty obvious for those with eyes to see and ears to hear.

Alonso 109 Hamilton 109 But, you all cling to this idea that Hamilton blew him away.. not

i cannot agree with Lando, Hamilton have been good, but the team made him good. Senna was so good that he made the team good...

when you excel and set bar so high no one toils n' dares equal then hate and desperations come into play in form of bad mouthing and bitchiness. Let them be who they wanna be!

When adrenaline kicks in they became animals.... lion will be lion.... anytime there will be war between dominant lion.....

Also, Mercedes is one of the largest and most successful companies in the world. These people at Mercedes have chosen Lewis Hamilton because he is perhaps the greatest ever. I do not pretend that I understand the job of those who chose Lewis. Mercedes does not pay you what they pay him without absolute talent. I do not use my personal feelings to openly speak. If it's green then it's green not grey because I do not like green.

9:00 😎😎

Another british coloured media channel.

I don't mind Lewis, he has been world champion 7 times in an elite sport and that has to be respected but the whinging and virtue-signalling is getting on my nerves. He lives a tax avoidance life of luxury in Monaco and if he was so picked on for his skin colour, he would not have been world champion 7 times. A little gratitude for the amazing life he has, and what he has achieved, would be welcomed by many. It's hard to feel sympathy for a multi-millionaire who has it all. Whining is not the mark of a man but of an immature boy who needs to grow up.

I think of Lewis Hamilton as a legend
