Lewis Hamilton retirement claim made after grim Ferrari prediction
F1 fans have been warned Lewis Hamilton could retire before his Ferrari contract expires if his form doesn’t improve. The seven-time world champion has endured a difficult start to life with the Scuderia, picking up just 31 points in five races.
Hamilton has not finished higher than fifth in a Grand Prix with his new team, and laboured to seventh in Saudi Arabia last Sunday. Even his one real high this year, a sprint race win in China, was followed by the crushing blow of being disqualified from the main race a day later. With his hopes of an unprecedented eighth world title already hanging by a thread, it’s now been suggested that the British driver could walk away from the sport before his deal runs out next year.
