Hamilton’s Ferrari future hangs in the balance after a winless 2024
Lewis Hamilton’s future in Formula 1 remains uncertain as the 2024 season draws to a close. The seven-time world champion is still chasing his first podium with Ferrari, with only the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix left. Meanwhile, former rival Damon Hill has suggested next year could be Hamilton’s last chance to prove himself at the top level.
Hamilton is experiencing the toughest season of his career. Despite joining Ferrari on a so-called 'long-term' career advice, the team has yet to confirm how many years remain on his contract. Rumours even suggest he may not stay beyond 2026, with young British driver Ollie Bearman tipped as a potential replacement.
Hamilton’s final race of 2024 in Abu Dhabi offers one last shot at a podium with Ferrari. Beyond that, next season may decide whether he extends his career or walks away. His future now hinges on whether Ferrari can deliver a car capable of fighting for championships.
