LEWIS HAMILTON says Max Verstappen has not changed from their furious fight for the 2021 title.
The Red Bull racer is currently defending his crown from Lando Norris - but has been accused of overly aggressive defending against his title rival in recent weeks.
Last Sunday in Mexico he picked up 20 seconds' worth of penalties for running the McLaren man off the road.
For Hamilton, it sparked memories of his infamous 2021 duel with Verstappen which turned sour, particularly towards the end of the season.
The seven-time F1 champion said: "All you have to do is just go back and listen to my radio comments back in the day.
"I do not think you see much difference across the years from 2021 to now. It is pretty much the same."
