Lewis Hamilton’s dream of an eighth F1 title with Ferrari is spinning off track.

His comments at the Hungarian Grand Prix in early August sparked concern among fans of Hamilton and Ferrari as the seven-time champion called himself “absolutely useless,” suggested Ferrari should consider replacing him, and hinted at deeper issues. “There’s a lot going on in the background that is not great,” Hamilton said.


Having a four-week break before next week’s Dutch Grand Prix offers a much-needed reset, argues Michael E Sawyer, author of a biography of Hamilton, Sir Lewis. 



“I think he’s venting, I think he’s down. I think the summer break couldn’t have come at a better time for him,” Sawyer told The Associated Press. “It gives him a chance to reflect and think through exactly what the approach is going to be.”

Hamilton certainly seems to be getting away from it all. He posted pictures on social media last week in the countryside with his bulldog Roscoe and the caption “DND.”
