Team boss Toto Wolff recently made a very strong statement about Lewis Hamilton, saying that the seven-time world champion is "statutory" and the Mercedes driver will be trying to disprove it for a few more races...
The world star, who will continue his career at Scuderia Ferrari next year, is here and signals that it would be a shame to write him off:
"I don't really know what he meant. I haven't read the news, so I'm not up to date with the whole story, but I think Toto has already explained what he meant. It doesn't affect our relationship because he's always supported me. Besides, I've been in this business for a long time, a lot of things have been said about me. The media has often been aggressive towards me, but nothing could bring me down, and that's how it will stay. I'm still here, fighting, struggling and loving this team, even if I leave at the end of the year.
My goal is to perform as well as possible in the upcoming races. If the technology allows it, our results will also be better." - Hamilton supported and stopped at the same time in the same sentence.
