“Not a huge amount to say.”

“There is limited communication, I think maybe some of the drivers hang more than others do.”

“I wouldn’t say I particularly hang closely with anyone particularly here.”

“Last year we would see each other at the track and we would say hi, we do the same this year,” the Formula 1 star shared.

“It’s no different for me, personally.”

The Hamilton-Verstappen continues to heat up as the end of the Formula 1 season is near. The dutchman has a slim six-point lead with six races to go. Hamilton explains his goal, aiming for another championship on his resume.

“It’s important to win every race somehow, you know, maximizing our points – that’s our goal over these next six races,” he said.

“It’s going to be incredibly difficult and there will be moments where we can perhaps edge them [Red Bull] out.
