Seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton claims Lewis has said that Lewis Hamilton Max Verstappen‘s post-race team radio messages reveal that the excitement of winning is not there anymore. Red Bull, and particularly Max Verstappen, have together dominated the 2023 Formula 1 season, winning 20 out of the 21 races held so far – with the Dutch driver emerging victorious at 18 Grand Prix races.
“When you have so much success, no matter how hard you try, it’s hard to keep things in perspective. I even hear it in Christian Horner’s voice when Max wins. He doesn’t know what to say. He’s like: ‘Here we go again. Good job, Max. Good job.'” Hamilton said in a conversation with Channel 4. “The excitement goes, but when you first get that win, it’s amazing. But if you have it all the time [it’s not the same]” he added.

Talking about the current season, Red Bull managed to secure its first ever 1-2 in the drivers’ championship, with Hamilton having to settle for third.
