When you’re 36-years-old and have achieved a considerable space in each racing fans’ mind, there seems to be no introduction given upon your superiority. Such is the case with the seven-time World Champion Lewis Hamilton who recently signed his second contract in 2021 itself and has assured Mercedes fans of his stay till 2023. Even in his 15th Formula 1 campaign, the ace British drivers looks at his very best and thrives to secure the championship, but until when shall he be continuing?
According to Hamilton his days in the Formula 1 are not too long. His latest comments assured fans that he would not be continuing in the highly-competitive racing league as long as Kimi Raikkonen, who recently announced his retired being 42-years-old.
What Was Opinionated by Lewis Hamilton?
Asked during an interview with Dutch broadcaster Ziggo whether he knows how long he wants to continue racing for, Lewis Hamilton stated as quoted by PlanetF1, “I don’t. I can’t imagine too much longer, but it could change. Every year, you’re in a different place. Maybe we won’t be in a pandemic next year and things change. I would say the pandemic has probably shortened my expectations of how long I would want to stay, but things could change.
He added, “What I do know is right now I love doing what I’m doing. I love still being here and hopefully deserve to still be here.”
The seven-time World Champion was also asked during the interview to state his best and worst qualities.
“Let’s say my worst quality is probably that I hate losing,” said the 99-time Formula 1 race winner. “I don’t know…for sure, I’ve definitely got bad qualities. Everyone has bad qualities. I’m really bad at communicating, I’m really bad at staying in touch with people, I have a really bad memory. My best qualities? I would say…I like to think I’m really good with kids. I love kids and family.”
Asked when the time would be right to have his own children, Hamilton concluded by saying, “Not while I’m racing. It’s hard enough with [dog] Roscoe! Roscoe is like my son. It’s hard enough just looking after him every day. I can barely look after myself. I don’t know. It depends what kind of world we’re living in at that time. It’s difficult times around the world.”
