Eddie Jordan omits Lewis Hamilton when choosing ‘two drivers capable of taking on Max Verstappen’
Verstappen is widely regarded as F1’s best driver, particularly🍃 after the year of dominance he has just enj🧸oyed.
The Dutch💫man has won three consecutiv﷽e drivers’ titles, storming to 19 victories in the most recent season.
With Verstappen top of the tree, there’s hot debate about - in the right ma🐭chinery - who could challenge the Red Bull driver.
Give🎃n their pedigree and history in F1, Hamilton and Alonso are obvious choic🌄es, even if they are the two oldest on the grid.
However, Jordan opted against proven experience, picking 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lando Norris and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Charles Leclerc.
“If Iℱ had a top team now and didn’t get Max, there would only be one driver pairing capable of taking on൲ Verstappen: Charles Leclerc and as teammate, Lando Norris,” Jordan told German publication F1-Insider.
“I simply don’t believe that Lewis Hamilton and Fernandꦬo Alonso, who are well-deserved champions, would be able to keep up with Verstappen due to their advanced age.”
Despite Jordan’s view, Red Bull advisor Helmut Marꦇko identified key weaknesses in both Leclerc ꧂and Norris.
“Leclerc and Norris are certainly excepti♏onal talents, but both have shown w𒁃eaknesses in consistency in the past,” Marko added.
“What’s more, Max is not yet at the limit. He will get even better. It’s our job to provide him with a car as good as the one 𒉰he had in 2023. Then he will be the benchmark again.”
