Two drivers with outstanding achievements in Formula 1, Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton, are often compared because of their prestigious achievements in this racing event. In 2021, these two powerful racers enlivened the competition, not only competing quickly on the track, they also chased each other for points in the standings. 

In terms of wins, there is only a slight difference between the two, Max got 18 wins, while Hamilton got 17 wins. Even though in the end Max became world champion, Lewis Hamilton's persistence throughout the season certainly cannot be underestimated.

Not surprisingly, regarding the title of best F1 racer of all time, Max has proven to be Lewis' toughest competitor at the moment. Regarding this issue, it turns out that it is not only fans who like to compare the two racers. Even Charles Leclerc did the same thing.

According to the Scuderia Ferrari racer, the two have similarities and differences. "They are both very fast, of course," said Leclerc, quoted from the GPBlog page on Saturday June 22, 2024. It is known that currently both Lewis and Max have won many wins. 

Even though Lewis still leads with the most wins, pole positions and world titles, with the current consistency of Red Bull and Max, it is not impossible that Lewis' record can be equaled. “As for Lewis, I think he is also very calculating. I mean on the track," he continued. 

With the wealth of experience he has had in F1 since 2007, Lewis has become a racer who is more alert and careful when driving his car. However, according to Leclerc something different happened to Max Verstappen. “He (Max) is a little more aggressive, he is the type of person who thinks 'if there is a gap, I will go after it,'” said Leclerc.

From race to race, Max's racing style always seems wilder than the other racers, it's no wonder that in the last few seasons he has continued to dominate in wins. Well, that's the difference between the two best Formula 1 drivers from Charles Leclerc's eyes. In your opinion, what is the difference?
