Lewis Hamilton has fueled his feud with former teammate Fernando Alonso by reminding him that he was beaten by a rookie when they drove for McLaren during the bitter 2007 campaign.

“It was my first season in Formula 1, alongside a double world champion, and I blew him away,” The Sun quoted Hamilton, as saying.

“No one has ever come into their first year and been at the front, let alone beat a world champion – beat the mentality and the strength he would have had and his experience in F1 up to that point,” he added.
