Former F1 driver Christijan Albers suggests that Lewis Hamilton’s lack of victories since the 2021 season has started to affect him. Hamilton, a seven-time World Champion, secured his last win at the 2021 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix amid a fierce battle with Red Bull’s Max Verstappen. Mercedes has faced challenges under the new technical regulations, with only one win by George Russell in the 2022 São Paulo Grand Prix.
Albers expresses hope for a stronger Mercedes performance in 2024 and emphasizes Hamilton’s unique abilities, comparing them to Verstappen’s. He highlights their consistent performance and tire management skills, suggesting Hamilton as the only driver who can rival Verstappen in these aspects.

The article underscores Hamilton’s desire for improvement and his struggle with the Mercedes not performing at the desired pace. Albers suggests that this prolonged period without victories can take a toll on a driver, leaving them exhausted and yearning for the competitive boost they need.
