lewis hamilton It has linked two difficult seasons. The end of 2021, losing the title in the last lap against max verstappenIt hurt, but 2022 was worse in terms of numbers, ending the year without wins or pole positions for the first time in his career. However, this has not diminished his self-confidence.
In an interview with ‘Formule1’, the Briton acknowledged that his last season, despite the results, has served him and Mercedes a lot: “What I can say about last year is that, as a team, now we are more resistant and determined. Our determination came from wanting to fight more after what happened in 2021.”
“Then at one point last season I thought: ‘My God, we can’t really fight for the world championship with this car.“‘ he added.
During the past course, Hamilton completed 300 grand prix disputed in his career. To date, none of the previous drivers have achieved a victory after reaching such a milestone, something that does not worry the seven-time champion much: “But there has never been a pilot like me”.
Hamilton is already preparing the 2023 season, a year in which Mercedes is expected to return to the highest level. In addition, the British contract ends and has already commented on several occasions that his intention is to renew and various media reported that said renovation would be quite succulent.
