Recently, his team principal, Toto Wolff, made a very strong statement about Lewis Hamilton, saying that the seven-time world champion's "expiration date has passed." The Mercedes driver, for a few more races, is trying to refute this...
The world star who will continue his career next year at Scuderia Ferrari is here and indicates that it would be a mistake to write him off:
"I don't really know what he meant by that. I haven't read the news, so I'm not aware of the whole story, but I think Toto has already clarified what he meant. This has no impact on our relationship, as he has always supported me. Besides, I've been in this profession for a very long time, and many things have been said about me. The media has often been aggressive towards me, but nothing has been able to knock me down, and it will stay that way. I'm still here, fighting, struggling, and I love this team, even if I leave here at the end of the year.
My goal is to perform as well as possible in the upcoming races. If the technology allows, then our results will be better as well." - Hamilton supported and retained in the same sentence.
