Christian Horner has made his Formula 1 title prediction, admitting that despite hoping for an easier ride, he expects a similar scenario to the one played out by Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton last campaign. 2021 saw arguably the most dramatic title race in F1 history, as Verstappen pipped Hamilton on the very final lap of the last race of the season in Abu Dhabi.
This time around, Verstappen’s biggest threat to a second successive world title looks to be Ferrari man Charles Leclerc, as he leads the way ahead of the Dutchman at the top of the drivers' standings in the early stages. Hamilton meanwhile, finds himself well off the pace, 68 points behind Leclerc in sixth.
Despite Hamilton’s struggles, Horner is tipping another hard-fought battle for the title, as his main man Verstappen chases back-to-back world championships.
