Lewis Hamilton, current Formula 1 champion, acknowledged that although he won with Mercedes the first Bahrain Grand Prix above Max Verstappen the Red Bull, recognized that the speed of the team where the Mexican is Sergio Perez, it will take too much to repeat the victories in every race.
“Every year there is talk of when you achieve top performances. I think I am in that moment and that Max (Verstappen) is also doing very well.
“So, We need everything and more to have these kinds of presentations. We like the challenge, I like the challenge; I still love what I do, he said after the race in Bahrain, “in the words the F1 site published on Monday.
The Formula 1 champion threw flowers at the Austrian team, which, for example, the Big Top itself underlines with the way in which Checo Pérez recovered 15 places in the first race of the year.
“This season started as one of the most difficult, if not the most difficult. I think Red Bull’s pace is unbelievably strong, as you could see. We cannot match them in qualifications at the moment. That’s a very, very big step for us, but of course I think we can get closer in the race, but in my opinion it was too close, ”he added.
