After Hamilton’s latest emphatic victory in Q🃏atar, he trails Verstappen by just eight points. 

With two rounds to go the momen🔯tum is on Hamilton and Mercedes’ side after domin🦩ating the last two weekends.

Despite Hamilton’s spectacular recent form,▨ Verstappen could take the title next time out in Saudi Arabia should results go 🍎his way. 

Speaking on the F1 Nation podcast, Hill said: “Lewis likes to be the hunte▨r, doesn't he? So🍸 he's happy where he is, hunting.

“But he's got precious few 💖opportunities now to make up the deficit, and we have got 𝔍a statistical situation now where he could lose the championship to Max.

“Max could win it in the next round at Saudi Arabia, if ce♛rtain permutations take place.”

Verstappen will ta🎃ke his maiden F1 title if he wins in Jeddah and Hamilton finishes sixth or ༺lower.

The seven-time champion hasn’t finished that low since the Azerbaijan Grand Prix, while h🐻is only non-finish of the season came at Monza when he collided with Versta🌊ppen.

Hill is hopeful the titl﷽e race goes down to the wire in Abu 🔯Dhabi.

“It's the first time we've got all the way down to the last two races," Hill added. "And this is the first time you could actually say, 'If something happens to one of the protagonists, the other guy's going to 🦩be the World Champion.

“Well no, actually. I🦄t could only be Max [in Saudi Arabia], it couldn't be Lewis because he's got the🍨 deficit. When was the last time he came sixth? 

“You've got this new engine, don'👍t forget. Toto said they're going to put the 'spicy engine' in.”
