F1 Icon Hamilton's Dreadful Season Plummets

Seven-time Formula 1 champion Lewis Hamilton described his current season as his worst ever following an eighth-place finish at the Las Vegas Grand Prix. Hamilton started 19th and climbed to fifth during the race, but ultimately secured a disappointing result. His struggles this season with Ferrari, where he has not won a single race or achieved a podium, have led to speculation about his future. This performance follows a disappointing qualifying session where he started last, exacerbated by difficult conditions.

Ferrari's executive chairman, John Elkann, has expressed dissatisfaction with the team's performance, notably after both Hamilton and teammate Charles Leclerc failed to finish the Brazilian Grand Prix. Elkann stated that drivers should focus on racing and talk less, reflecting the pressure on the team. Ferrari has dropped to fourth in the constructors' standings with only two races remaining in the season.

Hamilton's career has seen a significant downturn since the controversial 2021 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. Despite his previous dominance, he has not won a race in 2022 or 2023, and this year has been particularly challenging. His move to Ferrari was intended to reignite his career, but so far, it has failed to yield the expected results, leaving the legendary driver searching for answers.
