“It’s called a motor race. We went car racing”– Michael Masi. These are the words that broke Lewis Hamilton and Mercedes’ hearts. Yet, Hamilton followed his motto “Still we rise” and came back. However, the former F1 team owner has now given Lewis Hamilton a reality check tearing apart the Briton’s dream to beat Max Verstappen. What did the F1 megalomaniac say?

One can only imagine how devastated Lewis Hamilton would’ve been after losing the 2021 championship to Max Verstappen. It was his chance to win the record-breaking 8th championship and overtake Michael Schumacher in the history book. Verstappen and Hamilton went motor racing and the Dutchman came out on top. However, Lewis Hamilton didn’t stop believing and came back the next season to fight back.

However, former F1 team owner Eddie Jordan believes that Hamilton no longer has it in himself to win a championship. With Max Verstappen dominating Red Bull, the only way for Hamilton to win is if everything goes his way. Mercedes hasn’t been able to provide a competitive car and it looks unlikely that the Red Bull will be dethroned. 

According to F1 Maximaal.com, Eddie Jordan on the Formula for Success podcast said “I think it’s over. He can still win Grands Prix, but he will need everything to fall into place.” [Translated via Google]
