Bernie Ecclestone’s verdict on Lewis Hamilton’s 2024 F1 title hope

Hamilton and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Michael Schumacher share the record with seven titles each, ♎and time is running out for the cur🎃rent Mercedes driver to win an eighth.
Hamilton has now been sent well-wishes from somewhat of an unlikely source in E꧒cclestone, who h💝e has previously been handed criticism from.
"I hope🦂 he makes it,” Ecclestone said via about Hamilton’s bid for a record eig🐷hth title.
“He would then make history.”
Eccles༺tone and Hamilton clashed as recently๊ as last season.
Ha♕milton questioned why “older voices” were being given a platform to speak, in the wake of Nelson Piquet💮 labelling him a racist word.
“Maybe the older generation 𒈔are not interested in listening to what he has to say,” Ecclestone said in response via the .
But the ex-F1 supremo, aged 93, has now lent sup𓂃port to H♛amilton’s bid for this year’s championship.
Much of Hamilton’s hope will rely upon Mercedes delivering him a car which is substantially more competitive than th𒐪e iterations of the past two years.
One more title would add t🐻o Hamilton’s guaranteed legend, and take him in excess of Schumacher’s tally.
Schumacher, who won his titles at Benetton and Ferrari, laid the groundwork for Hamilton’s later glory with three seasons driving for Mercedes at th෴e end of his own career.
Eccleജstone, who stepped away from F1 when Liberty Media took over in 2017, remembers the Schumacher era well.
“Max Verstappen has a bit of [Scཧhumacher] in him,” Ecclestone now says.
"Max isn't as merciless as Michael was.
“Because Mich🐼ael didn🎶't even think about making compromises."
Ecclestone labelled Schumacher “a little mಌore ruthless” on the track.
Schumacher turned 55 years old this week, shortly after the 10-year anniversary of the skiing accident which resulted in life-changing i😼njuries.
