Lewis Hamilton tipped to blitz Michael Schumacher as Sebastian Vettel concern grows
Lewis Hamilton can win 10 F1 Drivers’ Championships before retiring, Martin Brundle believes, The 35-year-old is currently on seven triumphs, the same amount Michael Schumacher managed throughout his career. But Brundle thinks more is to come.
Hamilton won a seventh F1 Drivers’ Championship back in November at the Turkish Grand Prix.
And, with a new contract with Mercedes close to being signed, it seems he has no plans to retire just yet.
Hamilton has now won six titles in the last seven years, with 2016 the only blotch on his record.
And Brundle thinks he can win 10 crowns before retiring, telling Sky Sports: “His eyesight, his reactions, nothing has fallen away.
“If you’re going to start fading, you’re on a gentle slope. And he doesn’t appear to have started that slope yet.
“Michael was in his 40s when he retired and he started making a lot of mistakes, and most of us did – you start having crashes at the end and you don’t know why that happened. That’s what it looks like Sebastian is to me, right now.
