Has “generational” Max Verstappen overtaken Lewis Hamilton? Johnny Herbert’s bold claim

Verstappen claimed his seventh consecutive victory of F1 2023 at the Hungaroring last time out.
It means he’s now 110 points clear of Red Bull teammate 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Sergio Perez, thus on course toཧ secure a third consecutive drivers’ ti🃏tle.
By the end of the season, it’s likely Verstappen will move ahead of 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Sebastian Vettel and into third in the all-time F1 winners list.
Speaking to , Herbe♋rt - who won three races during his own F1 career - thinks Verstappen will ultimately go down as the greater driꦡver.
“Max Verstappen𝔉 is a once in a generationa🐈l talent,” he said. “There is always one individual who comes along who is better than the last – notwithstanding the technological advances.
“Max wil💞l be better than Lewis, Lewis was better than Michael Schumacher, and Schumacher was better than Senna. It just 🅘evolves.
“🤡Max has grown up so much 💮as a driver. He just doesn’t fly away into the distance. He will judge it and do just what he needs to do.

“That is the change from the Max of old.ꦫ Because of that I do not see anyone yet gett❀ing themselves on to the same level as Red Bull.
“A bad day for Max was second. A bad day for hi🌄m now is first!”
Herbert also made clear that if Hamilton was to leave Mercedes, George Russell would be perfectly suited to lead the team in the seven-time world champion’s 🎀absence .
“It would not be the end of the world because they have got George Russell,” he added. “I think he is more than capable of taking oveꦆr i♚f he had to because he fits in brilliantly, he is mature and he has got the speed that is needed."
