📰|Q- Last year you outscored Lewis by 86 points. This year, after five races, the gap is much smaller. How do you explain that? "Lewis is incredibly talented and has achieved far more than I have in this sport. Last year was not easy for him and I think he was unlucky on many occasions. This year, with this car, he felt comfortable straight away. For me, there has been a bit more work to do, particularly in China and Montreal. I never doubted it would be close, and that is a good thing because we push each other to unlock more performance on both sides." "Our relationship has clearly evolved too. Lewis now knows the team much better — he knows exactly which people to ask for particular information. Those may seem like small details, but at a team the size of Ferrari, with around 1,500 people, they make a big difference. We have always gotten along extremely well, but now everything is a bit smoother, and that is only positive for both of us."

If Max Verstappen had spent his entire career in a Mercedes as dominant as Hamilton's 2014-2020 cars, he'd already be a 10-time World Champion.
