Hamilton can dominate for years to come - Williams

Frank Williams says Lewis Hamilton could easily go on to dominate the Monaco Grand Prix for years to come and follow in the footsteps of Michael Schumacher and Ayrton Senna as the most successful drivers in the Principality.

"Lewis won in style, in the wet in Monte Carlo," Williams told Reuters. "Massive pressure, lots of walls. You need brain power to keep everything under control."

"Michael Schumacher dominated this race for much too long," he added. "That era is gone. Lewis has the character and the capability to carry on with his name on this race for quite a few years. He is up to it."
