Seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton has been racing in Formula 1 for over 17 years. Despite facing hardships and rough spells, Hamilton has shown no signs of slowing down and is going strong at the age of 39.
Lewis Hamilton was off to a slow start in 2024, failing to win or score a podium in the first nine races. However, he has found his feet, winning twice and notching four podiums in the last five races before the ongoing summer break.
The 39-year-old has talked of the ever-demanding nature of the pinnacle of motorsport while citing his approach to it. Hamilton has also broken down his recovery process to adapt to the different needs of the sport.
You definitely adapt always, and you learn you have to just watch your energy. Recovery is huge, a really big part of the process. It’s the whole 360 thing. It’s not just going to the gym. It’s how much you stretch, how much physio you end up doing, what you eat. And that’s constantly changing week by week. And obviously, depending on how much energy you have, the different time zones that you’re in.Lewis Hamilton via esquire
