Toto Wolff says Lewis Hamilton may never get over being “robbed” of a record eighth title and indicated that the driver was no certainty to return next year.
Mercedes team boss Toto Wolff has raised doubts about Lewis Hamilton’s future in Formula One and said the driver may never get over the pain of being “robbed” of a record eighth title.
Hamilton lost to Red Bull’s Max Verstappen in the title race after the Dutch driver overtook him on the last lap at Yas Marina, benefiting from a sudden change to the safety car procedure that allowed racing to resume. “And certainly not him [Hamilton] as a driver. I would very much hope the two of us and the rest of the team, we can work through the events ... But he will never overcome the pain and the distress that was caused on Sunday.”
