Bernie Ecclestone advises Lewis Hamilton to step away from Formula 1 amidst his struggles at Ferrari. The seven-time world champion’s move to the Italian team this season has been challenging, with no podium finishes in 14 races and a disappointing 12th place in the recent Hungarian GP.
Hamilton has been consistently outperformed by his Ferrari teammate Charles Leclerc and has faced criticisms from Ecclestone, the former F1 leader, who suggests that Hamilton may need a break from the sport. Ecclestone emphasizes that continuing in F1 could potentially harm Hamilton, urging him to consider retiring to avoid unnecessary risks.
The 94-year-old believes that Hamilton should negotiate with Ferrari to find a replacement, highlighting that the British star has achieved significant success with seven world titles. Hamilton had initially signed a two-year deal with Ferrari but hinted at stepping down following his subpar performance. The upcoming race in the Netherlands offers a brief respite for Hamilton and his competitors.
