Christian Horner stated in the press that Max Verstappen was "the best driver in the world". The Red Bull boss suggested the flying Dutchman would edge five-time world champion, Hamilton if they raced each other in equal cars. 

The British driver was told about this in the press conference ahead of his home race. Hamilton was blunt with his response. 

“I don't compare myself with anyone, I don't need to. I don't really have an answer to these claims. Every once in a while someone needs certain attention… I think Max has been doing a great job and the last race was fantastic. It will be interesting to see how they do moving forward," says Hamilton.
