Debate | Hamilton is the only driver who can challenge Verstappen

Despite Red Bull finishing in the constructors’ championship, Max Verstappen was crowned as drivers’ champion this season in F1. The Dutchman could defeat Lando Norris in their title battle, and in Las Vegas, he secured his fourth victory in a row.

Hamilton is going to show what he can do one more time at Ferrari

Lewis Hamilton is now on his way to Ferrari, after completing a ‘farewell tour’ with Mercedes. With the Scuderia, the Briton hopes to win his eighth Formula One title, breaking the tie with Michael Schumacher.

The title battle of the 2021 season is one the fans of the competition will remember for a very long time. Throughout the entire season, the two locked horns, with many twists and turns.

This season, it was Lando Norris challenged Verstappen, but made many mistakes in his first attempt. Many question whether the younger Briton has that ‘killer’ mentality, that is needed to become champion. Hamilton undoubtedly has that, having fought many battles against drivers like Fernando Alonso and Lewis Hamilton. If Ferrari could continue improving, there is a good chance that the ’21 season could happen again next year.

Therefore, the debate’s question reads: Is Hamilton the only F1 driver on the current grid who can match Verstappen?
