Lewis Hamilton and Sebastian Vettel are fighting to become the first driver on the current grid to have five World Championship trophies in the cabinet. They're both locked on four titles and will fight at the top of the championship once the season resumes in Belgium next week!
Arguably, the winner of the 2018 season becomes the greatest driver of modern F1. But according to Toto Wolff, Hamilton already has this crown on his head. He claims his British driver is already the best.
"Lewis has a very clear vision of what he believes. It makes him the most successful, modern driver in Formula 1. And I think we should see it as inspiration how he can find more and more strength in difficult periods," Wolff told Racefans.
"It gives him an exceptional power. And where I come from, I have learned not to judge people on what they need to perform well."
We shall see Toto, we shall see. Heading into the second stint of the season, the Mercedes driver has a 24 point over the Ferrari driver.
