F1 | Hamilton: “Alonso? The strongest teammate”
On the current championship: "It will be an intense battle"
Lewis Hamilton has no doubts. The Englishman, in fact, considers Fernando Alonso the strongest teammate with whom he has shared a garage.
In fact, in 2007, the two were protagonists of a tense rivalry in McLaren which led to both losing the world title to Ferrari driver Kimi Raikkonen.
"Fernando was one of the hardest to beat”, declared the reigning world champion during an event organized by UBS.
Speaking instead of Nico Rosberg, Hamilton added: “I would say the battle with Nico was difficult, but for different reasons".
Returning to current events and the world championship challenge with Sebastian Vettel, the standard bearer of the Star, currently leader of the world championship standings with a four-point advantage over German rival Ferrari, said: “It will be an intense battle".
