"I believe Lewis has already surpassed Michael,”So Jordan in conversation with talkSPORT. "Michael started with me, in that sense I’m a bit biased. At the time, I was working with people like Barrichello, Irivne, Fisichella and Jean Alesi,”He remembers Jordan. "If we signed a contract with Michael, he had the terms in it,”Jordan remembers those times and explains:“What we saw last week in Austin probably wouldn’t be allowed."

Jordan claims that if Michael hadn’t had so much help, he would never have won seven championship titles.

There is talk of a duel between Valtteri Bottas in Hamilton for the victory that came out in favor of the Finn. Schumacher he always made sure in the contract that he was on the team number 1. "If Lewis had the same terms in his contract as Michael, then Bottas shouldn't overtake him,”He is convinced Jordan. "It’s not about sports that one part of a team dictates to another what they have to do. This is Michael’s flaw in my eyes. Seven championship titles - but how many would you have won if you didn’t have the unconditional support of other people on the team? And I’m not just talking about team members here, but other racers as well."

"In my opinion, Lewis is already in the second division,”Is Jordan full praise at the expense of the British and explains: "He achieved everything on his own. In 2008, he won the title at McLarn and then Niki brought him to Mercedes. Niki was the one, Lewis himself often says, who made him what he is today, namely an international champion. What he has achieved, he fills his family and surroundings with pride. He can be proud of himself,He added Jordan.
