Hamilton warns Verstappen: 'In the best shape ever'

Lewis Hamilton missed out on the title in the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. The Briton was quiet, but always knew he would continue in Formula 1, and he still has enough fighting spirit left in him to go into battle.

The driver, with his seven world titles, already has a long history in Formula 1 behind him. Whereas he won several times with a big difference in points, Max Verstappen managed to beat him in 2021. This was partly due to a high-profile decision by the race committee, which made Hamilton momentarily reluctant to continue.

For two months Hamilton talk on social media, but this month the Briton told the outside world that he would return for another Formula One season. Although the Mercedes driver was considering his future, it was the only logical decision for him to make.

"At the end of every season you think about the future, especially at my age, " Hamilton explained in a conversation with Formulapassion.it. "I looked at all the options, but I love what I do and working with my team. I feel I'm at my best, so why should I leave? I feel like I'm in the best shape ever."
