Lewis Hamilton’s “most dangerous rivals” are Max Verstappen and Charles Leclerc according to former F1 champion Alain Prost. Currently, the F1 legend acts as a key advisor to the Renault works team.
Prost had said when he spoke to Le Parisien.
Hamilton is one of the best drivers right now and also have the best experiences.
But on the other hand, there are great prospects for Max Verstappen and Charles Leclerc to win the championship and may give competition to Hamilton.
Some say Verstappen will pose Lewis Hamilton’s biggest challenge in the season 2020. Prost had some concerns about that notion though.
The four-time world champion indicated Verstappen’s need to remain calm in certain moments to retain its equilibrium. Although he has acknowledged that he is invincible until Verstappen has it underhand. As well as a good car underneath him.
Even the Frenchman opened up to outsider Renault, compatriot Esteban Ocon backed by Mercedes. Prost acknowledged the unintentional sabbatical of Ocon. Although he noted it had been a good experience. The retired McLaren and Ferrari driver claims this exposure will have enabled the further growth of his maturity.
Some French drivers find themselves in a similar position to him. The world is getting more and more money, but not here (in France),’ Prost said.
It will reveal its 2020 car on February 12th on the basis of the Renault Sport Formula One team. The spokesperson also explained that in the case the new car would not be “physically present.” A demonstration vehicle is usually shown. But another spokesman has suggested otherwise.
What is likely to happen is that the livery will be shown on the 2019 model, while the 2020 beast will make its debut later. This could arise before work starts on February 19th.
Some say Verstappen will pose Lewis Hamilton’s biggest challenge in the season 2020. Prost had some reservations about that notion though.
