Speaking about how Verstappen could be aided in future seasons, Horner said:
Christian Horner believes having a competitive car will play a big role in providing Max Verstappen with more titles
While Christian Horner praised the Red Bull champion, he believes if the Dutchman had a similar opportunity to what Hamilton had when he joined Mercedes, the outcome would be equally phenomenal.
The Milton Keynes-based team’s principal pointed out how Hamilton had only one world championship with McLaren before his switch to Mercedes. The Briton is now a seven-time world champion, with six of his titles coming in a dominant car produced by the Brackley-based outfit.
Stating Hamilton’s dominance after joining Mercedes, Horner said:
Echoing Horner’s words, Alpha Tauri driver Pierre Gasly recently made a similar statement about Hamilton’s multiple titles. The Frenchman believes the Briton would not have achieved the same result in another team in the V6 era of the sport.
Meanwhile, as Max Verstappen prepares to defend his title in the upcoming season, it will be interesting to see how the Red Bull F1 team’s RB18 is competitive enough for the Dutchman to outperform his rivals.
