Hamilton opened up about the emotional challenges of his final year with Mercedes, acknowledging that the transition to Ferrari was more difficult than he anticipated.
Lewis Hamilton admitted he 'massively underestimated' what his final year at Mercedes would be like in the wake of announcing that he was joining Ferrari for 2025 and that he has not always handled his emotions in the best way. Hamilton will race for the Silver Arrows for the 246th and final time at F1's season finale in Abu Dhabi this weekend, the final chapter in a team-driver relationship that has rewritten the sport's record books over the past 12 years.
'And I'm not going to apologise for either because I'm only human, and I don't always get it right. And I would definitely say this year has been one of the worst in terms of handling that from my side, which I will work on trying to be better at.' Hamilton though said that ultimately it would be the highs of their towering achievements together and the strength of relationships built at the team which ultimately will stand the test of time.
