Eddie Jordan spoke to the Formula For Success podcast about Lewis Hamilton and his qualities. Ever since arriving on the F1 scene, Hamilton has shown how ambitious he is and has shown his class countless times. Although he is not doing very well right now, we have no doubt that there is still hope for him.
“He adores and loves his racing, and remember, he’s been doing this since five or six years of age – so I don’t know where he gathers up the total commitment every weekend, to gather up the excitement to keep doing it time and time again,” Jordan said of Hamilton, as quoted by crash.net Jordan would support him if Hamilton decided to say goodbye.
“So I would forgive him if he decided to stop. I’d support him on that. If he decides to go ahead, I want to see that he has at least a chance to fight for races because that eighth World Championship has to be in the back of his mind."
Eddie Jordan on Max Verstappen
Jordan also referred to Max Verstappen, as well as the great things he is currently doing.
The Dutchman has a good chance to achieve huge success and break all records. “He knows he’s equalled what Michael Schumacher has, but let’s be very clear about this. We look into the future, if everything stays well with Max, and I’m hoping that it will both mentally, physically and everything to do with the car, then Max is going to hit 10 World Championships – because he’s that young and he’s that good and you know what he’s like, how fast is he? He’s just ridiculous, how good he is.
So I think Lewis needs to get on his bike and hurry up and get number eight, because it’s soon to be passed up by Max in any case”.
