On January 17, Beijing time, three-time F1 champion, Scottish racing driver John Jan Stewart stood up and said that Hamilton has not yet reached the first person position in F1.
In the previous sun selection, editor-in-chief Ben Hunt put Sir Lewis in F1 first, while Brazilian car god Senna and German car king Schumacher ranked second and third respectively. In last year's competition, Hamilton was defeated by Max Verstappen and failed to win the eighth title.
In the past week, the British media has selected the top ten drivers in F1 history, and Hamilton, who plays for the Meben team, has come to the top. This has made many fans dissatisfied.
Former F1 world champion and former rider who won the Jazz title more than 20 years before Hamilton came out and spoke out. He believes that the achievements of the little man are completely different from those of the older generation of drivers. Although he won 7 championships, he is the most champion of the sub-stations.
On this list, Sir Stewart is sixth, having won three titles in F1 and finished runners-up in the Indy 500. However, Sir Stewart believes that there are many drivers who are better than himself. Hamilton isn't even the best British driver.
Sir Stewart explained that the current F1 races have 20-22 stops a year, which is a lot more than in the past. Fangio's era had only 6-9 games a year, and the record has become much easier. He didn't mean to belittle Hamilton himself, but today's F1 race and the past are two entirely two events.
'Lewis has been successful, but that success is completely different from some of the great drivers of the past." Sir Stewart said: "Lewis's car and engine are much bigger than other drivers, which makes it difficult to compare their achievements. However, Hamilton moved to Meben, and I would like to pay tribute to him for taking off his hat, which is very wise. ”
In the end, Stewart had his own mental arrangement, and Hamilton didn't even make the top three.
Stewart's top three drivers are Juan Manuel Van Giorgio, Jim Clark and Elton Senna. In the "Sun" rankings, the three drivers are ranked fifth, fourth and second respectively. Schumacher was third.
If the old Jazz continue to line up, his former teammates Graham Hill, Schumacher and Prost will all be on the list.
Fangio has won five championships for four teams, while British driver Clark has won two championships, making him the driver with the highest winning percentage in the same period.
In the past F1 races, the performance gap between multiple racing teams was not large, and every competition was a game between drivers. In today's races, there is a significant gap in team research and development. Racing teams such as Mayben and Red Bull are far ahead of other teams. Even new drivers, driving the cars of these two teams, are difficult for new teams to surpass.
As a result, the status of modern riders began to decline. In the long season, the physical requirements for the drivers are even higher.
In most media rankings, the deceased Senna is a well-deserved number one. While Schumacher is second, Hamilton needs more championships if he wants to overtake them.
