Like I said last week, Hamilton is now not even close to the Hamilton that many know as a 7 time champion and Ferrari truly screwed up in bringing him in, at least as far as F1 goes, I have ZERO interest in the marketing pros, from an F1 perspective they messed up big time!
2026 will be very telling for Lewis.
Several commentators have mentioned that the ground effect cars do not suit Hamilton’s natural driving style. The new cars should be closer to what he prefers.
Now whether he should have been able to adapt or not is a whole other debate, but if the new regs don’t suit him then I don’t think anyone will be surprised to see him retire at the end of 2026.
