Fernando Alonso's comments about value of F1 titles made Lewis Hamilton 'giggle’
In an interview with Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf, Alonso was quoted as stating that a championship is “differe꧂nt when you only had to fight with your teammate”.
The Spaniard appeared to suggest he valued 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen’s two world titles higher than Hamilton’s seve🐷n.
“I ღthink a championship has less value than when you have fewer titles but have had to fight against other drivers with equal or even better material,” he added.
Hamilton 16🌠8澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:responded by posting a cryptic message of a thumbs up symbol with a picture from 2007 showing him on the top step of the podium and ♏Alonso in second.
The Briton finished ahea♎d of Alonso in the world championship when the pair were teammates at McLaren during Hamilton’s rookie F1 seas🍌on.
Asked for his opinion after finishing second behind Verstappen in Sunday's Mexico City G💟rand Prix, a smiling Hamilton said: “I gave you it. That's my thumbs up.
"I ᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚdon't 𒁏really have a lot to say about it, it does make me giggle a little bit to be honest.
“But I have tried to be really respectful over the years and for example, when you've ever asked me about who has been the bett⛦er driver for me, I've always 𝔍tried to give praise.
"It's definitely interesting to see the commen﷽ts that are made, but it doesn't really matter. So that's why I jus🔯t gave the thumbs up.”
Two-time world champion Alonso took to Twitꦑter to 💃clarify his comments after his quotes were picked up by other media outlets.
The Alpine driver wrote: “And again… Please, all the titles are amazing, we꧒ll deserved and inspiring. Incomparable to each other and let’s enjoy champions and legends of our current time.
“Tired of the 🌼continuous search for headlines. Let's enjo🥀y them.”
And again…
