The 39-year-old narrowly missed out on a record eighth world title in 2021 at the hands of Max Verstappen after a controversial finish to the final round of the season in Abu Dhabi.

Hamilton’s win in Jeddah that season is to date his last win in F1, with the Brit struggling with his Mercedes machinery in the last two seasons.

Wolff: Hamilton still the greatest in the world

2023 saw Hamilton finish third in the standings with six podiums, with the team beating Ferrari to second in the constructors’ championship at the final round in Abu Dhabi.

Speaking after that race, where the seven-time champion could only manage ninth, team principal Wolff proclaimed that he is still the best in the world if given a competitive car.

“From Lewis’s perspective, he had a bad weekend, fact,” Wolff said.
