Hamilton has been enjoying some down time during the break between the 2023 and 2024 F1 seasons. The Brit finished third in the drivers’ standings last year, behind Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez, and renewed his contract with Mercedes midway through the campaign.
“It’s the dream of standing on the top step, seeing your team,” Hamilton said when asked about his motivations for prolonging his career. “One of the most amazing things is being able to look back and having the flag of the nation rising behind you, and seeing the team.
“I remember the first win I had with this team [in Hungary in 2013]. I have a particular picture of 2015 in Australia with the [team] down there in tears – it was just amazing to be a part of that.
“The power of that is a huge part of the drive. Winning the world championship is a huge part of the drive. Continuing to build with the team on the impact work we’re doing, and continuing to push with the team with Mission 44. I don’t know how far that can go and I’m trying to expand it, and that means I’ve got to raise more money.”
