Hamilton is a driver whose talent level is way higher than Verstappen. And I don't think that some other driver will be able to break the records that Hamilton did for a long time period. The only reason why people support Verstappen who is an arrogant driver is that Hamilton has been dominating F1 for a long time and people just want a change.

I do not believe that Lewis Hamilton's talents as a driver far exceed Verstappen's. Let's be objective - they are both bright stars in F1 races.
But you are partly right. Hamilton's endless victories in previous years, by the way, of course honestly deserved, are really already a little tired of spectators and racing fans. They certainly want a change.
It was in 2021 that such changes took place.
But in any case, Max's victory is deserved and the whole season he was great, even despite the northern character and arrogance. Which of course upsets some of the fans.

I think like them, Hamilton is certainly an exceptional talent but Verstappen beat Hamilton with hard work and an inferior car (even if some maneuvers were hard). In another team, for example Ferrari, Hamilton probably would not have won the 7 world championship titles. Objectively and the Constructors titles (8 in a row) show Mercedes was the undisputed number one for the last 8 years and no one but Mercedes themselves could beat them. The last real competitor of Hamilton in the same car was Rosberg.

Frankly, I don't agree with this point of view. I would like to know the reason why you think that Mercedes' car is better than Red Bull's this year. Besides, Hamilton managed to leave his superstar teammate Alonso behind in his rookie season. But he lost the championship to Raikkonen. When I look at Hamilton's career, I can say that he and Michael Schumacher are the most talented drivers.
