Lewis Hamilton News

Despite the fact that Hamilton's Mercedes couldn't keep up with the speed of the Red Bulls, the Brit had a solid and consistent start to the 2023 season. As the season progressed, he frequently finished high in the standings, ultimately securing 234 points. Additionally, he stood on the podium a remarkable six times. Can Lewis Hamilton clinch his eighth world title with Mercedes in 2024? You can read the latest news about the Mercedes driver on RacingNews365.com.

Hamilton F1

Born in Stevenage, Hamilton began his career karting and, after winning his first title at the age of 10, told McLaren boss Ron Dennis he wanted to drive his cars in F1 one day. In response, Dennis famously wrote in Hamilton's autograph book: "Phone me in nine years and we'll sort something out". Just three years later, it was Dennis who offered Hamilton a role in the McLaren Driver Development Programme, with the contract including an option on a future F1 seat.

In 2001, Hamilton began racing single-seaters in the Formula Renault Winter Series, before competing in a full Formula Renault UK campaign in 2002. After clinching that title in 2003, he spent two full seasons in the Formula 3 Euro Series, finishing fifth in 2004 before winning 15 of 20 races en route to a dominant championship victory in 2005. More success would follow, as Hamilton rounded off his junior racing career with the GP2 title in 2006.

Lewis Hamilton for McLaren

After months of speculation, McLaren finally announced Hamilton as Fernando Alonso's teammate for the 2007 season. The Briton impressed immediately, beginning his F1 career with nine consecutive podium finishes which included wins in Canada and America. For large parts of the season, Hamilton looked destined to win the Drivers' Championship in his rookie campaign, but would agonisingly miss out by a point to Ferrari's Kimi Raikkonen.

In similarly dramatic fashion, Hamilton made amends the following year, winning the 2008 title thanks to a late move on Timo Glock at the season-ending Brazilian Grand Prix. However, in the years that followed with the Woking-based outfit, frustration began to fester as one thing or another dashed Hamilton's hopes of adding to his haul of titles. This led the Briton to leave for Mercedes in 2013, in a move that shocked the paddock.

Hamilton equals Schumacher with records

    It proved to be an astute decision, however, as Hamilton has gone on to become the most decorated driver in Formula 1 history, equalling Michael Schumacher's seven world titles and eclipsing his record of race wins, poles and podium finishes.

    Only three times has Hamilton been beaten in his Mercedes career. This happened in 2016, when teammate Nico Rosberg prevailed by five points before announcing his shock retirement at the end of the year. Then, in 2021, Max Verstappen took the title by overtaking Hamilton on the last lap of the controversial Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.

    Tough 2022 season with Mercedes

    In 2022, Hamilton experienced what was statistically his worst season in Formula 1, with both the Briton and new teammate George Russell unable to challenge their rivals due to issues with the W13 car. While Verstappen took his second championship, Hamilton finished the year down in sixth in the standings.

    Lewis Hamilton in 2023 and 2024

    In 2023, Hamilton will once again team up with Russell for Mercedes. Here, they aimed to make a move towards the top team Red Bull and compete for the world titles again. However, it quickly became apparent that Red Bull was too dominant, turning the competition into a battle for the second position with Ferrari. Mercedes emerged victorious in this contest. Lewis Hamilton scored 234 points this season compared to his teammate's 175 points.

    Can Mercedes compete for the world title in 2024, and how many points can Hamilton score for the team? Can Lewis Hamilton secure his eighth world title?
