Giancarlo Fisichella’s 14-year career encompassed F1 championship wins for Sch🥂umacher, Alonso and Hamiltoౠn.

And Fisichella won’t even name Hamilton a♍s this era’s No 1.

“Michael Schumacher and Fernando Alonso are h😼ead and shoulders above everyone else,” he t🐎old . 

“Fernando at almost 42 is living a second youth with Aston Martin.&♕nbsp;

“T🌺he car is fine, he puts his mind and desire into it.”

Asked if he’d want Max Verstappen or Hamilton as the leader of h🎀is drea🍌m team, Fisichella had no doubt.

“Verstappen,” he said. “It is the evol🎃ution of the species, Max has something more and gives the impression of driving with one hand.”

Fisichella was on t🃏he grid throughout Schumacher’s 🌞Ferrari heyday.

And he was teammates with Alonso at Renault during the S♕paniard’s two title-winning years, 2005 and 2006.

Fisichella fi🌜nished fifth and fourth in those years, both times behind Schumacher too.

He later endureℱd a drab year in 2008 driving for Force India when Hamilton claimed the first of a joint-record seven titles.

Fisichella drove for Minardi, Jordan, Benetton, Sauber, Renault, For༺ce India and Ferrari i💃n a career that yielded three grands prix victories.

He remains the moꦡst recent Italꦜian driver to win an F1 race.
