Jacques VILLENEUVE: The duel between LEWIS and MAX is not comparable to the one between SENNO and PROST

Formula 1 has not been as exciting as it has been this year for some time, to which, of course, the equal duel between Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappn makes a decisive contribution.

Lewis Hamilton was the undisputed ruler of Formula 1 in recent years, the Dutch driver of the team Red Bull however, after the victory in Monaco for the first time in his career he climbed to the top in the sum of racers and challenged the Briton to a duel, which in recent years in such a form he wasn't exactly used to it.

Many are therefore a duel between Hamilton in Verstappen have already begun to compare with the legendary fight for the title between Ayrton Senna in Alain Prost, Jacques Villeneuve is, however, of the opinion that such a comparison is not entirely appropriate.

Jacques Villeneuve is of the opinion that the duel between Verstappn and Hamilton does not have the sharpness of a duel between Senna and Prost.

"If you look at the duel between Senna and Prost, you have to know that there was a lot going on outside the race cars," he said. je Canadian told for Motorsport-magazine.com and added: “Parallels with the duel between Senna and Prost could be drawn if Nico were still racing, because in both cases it would be more than just a duel on the track. There’s not that component of dislike between Max and Lewis that made the duel between Senna and Prost even more tense than it otherwise would have been. We will see how everything will continue during the season. "

Villeneuve he also touched on progress in the context of the issue Ferrari, which was especially noticeable in Monaco, where Carlos Sainz finally won second place: “He thinks that Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz could also get involved in what is happening at the very top if the car becomes more and more competitive. Anyway, the duel between Max and Lewis is not anyone knows how similar to the one between Senna and Prost. Let's not forget that the Brazilian and the Frenchman were also teammates. ”
