Lewis Hamilton delivers put-down retort to Fernando Alonso’s jibe that compared him to Max Verstappen
Alonso claimed Hamilton “only had to fight with teammates” to win seven F1 championships.
So Hamilton shared a picture from the 2007 United States G♔rand Prixꦡ, which he won, ahead of then-teammate Alonso.

Hamilton’s first season in F1 was alon🔜gsid🅺e Alonso driving for McLaren.
Alonso’s full quotes to De Telegraaf at the 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:F1 Mexico City Grand Prix hinted that 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen’s two tiꦏtles were worth more than Hamilton’s seven.
"I have a lot of respect for Lewis, but still it is different when you win seven world title🐭s when you only had to fight with your teammate," he 🦩said.
“Then I think a championship has less value than when you have fewer ti▨tles but have had 🐈to fight against other drivers with equal or even better material.
"In 2005 and 2006, I had a good start to the year myself and was able to create a lead. Then others might have had a be🗹tter car, but I was able to manage that gap.
"I never had to fight with my teammate to win those titles. Nor did I see Max fighting with 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Sergio Perez or 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Alex Albon to win races.
"But Schumacher in particular fought with his teammate to become champion five times in a row and Hamilton fought with 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Nico Rosberg and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Valtteri Bottas. That's different, I think."
