Goosebumps: this video shows strengths of Verstappen and Hamilton

Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen are preparing for the most important day of their Formula 1 careers. While the Dutchman can take his first world title, Hamilton has the opportunity to take the record of most championships away from Michael Schumacher. Channel 4 have already put us in the mood.

The sports channel recorded a video with Lennie James where the British actor, film producer, screenwriter and playwright takes us on a journey through the past years, in which he flawlessly describes the tension between Verstappen and Hamilton. It gives you goosebumps for two and a half minutes.

Are we about to see the growing of a legend, or the start of a new one? @RealLennieJames x #C4F1 | #F1 pic.twitter.com/cyBjuBCHNg

Achievements of Hamilton and Verstappen

For example, he refers to the great talent Verstappen had from a young age. The Dutchman made his debut in Formula 1 back in 2015 and made his breakthrough with Red Bull Racing a year later. While he had to learn a lot in his first few years, this season he has managed to equal Hamilton's level.

The Briton has taken the top prize seven times in his career. If he wins on Sunday afternoon he will take the record away from Michael Schumacher. The German won seven world championships during his active career.
