“Biggest Hypocrite”: Lewis Hamilton’s Criticism of Max Verstappen & Co. Backfires as Fans Spit Facts to Defend Red Bull

“Red Bull gives you wings.” This statement is certainly true in Max Verstappen’s case. The 2X champion has been super dominant in the 2023 F1 season. Even Lewis Hamilton’s “Hammer Time” is of no use against the Dutch prowess. Amid this tough time for Lewis Hamilton, his criticism of Max Verstappen and Co. has backfired with fans slamming the 7X champion with cold harsh facts. What did Hamilton criticize?

Earlier in the season, Lewis Hamilton made an appeal to the FIA to introduce a new rule that will stop teams from starting the development of the next year’s car before a certain date. This was Hamilton’s attempt to stop Max Verstappen from gaining an advantage for the next year as Red Bull had already started the development on the 2024 car. The Briton has come out again criticizing Red Bull’s domination.

According to @RBR_daily’s Tweet quoted from rossomotori.it, Lewis Hamilton said, “If we continue like this, maybe it will be Ferrari that will dominate in the next few years, or maybe McLaren will, or maybe Mercedes will come back ahead, but I think this is not the best thing for the fans . We shouldn’t have a chance to dominate for a large number of years, the battle for top positions should be closer. Unfortunately, however, Red Bull could seriously dominate in the next three seasons as well”
