Lewis Hamilton will turn 39 in January – but the seven-time world champion’s contract with Toto Wolff’s Mercedes doesn’t expire until the end of the 2025 campaign
Lewis Hamilton admits he has contemplated retirement but insists he remains determined to keep his Formula 1 dream alive.
Hamilton, a seven-time world champion, narrowly missed out on winning a record eighth crown two years ago. He’s since struggled to keep up with reigning champion Max Verstappen, failing to win a single race since the 2021 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix.
Hamilton believes Mercedes got complacent during their long stint at the top of F1, as they won every Constructors’ Championship between 2014 and 2021. Although he’s admitted the last two years have been tough, he’s determined to become a champion again.
