Triple Formula 1 World Champion Lewis Hamilton has decided to quit Formula 1 and with it free up the sport’s most coveted seat – in the Mercedes team – which will be filled by Fernando Alonso, starting at the forthcoming Chinese Grand Prix weekend.
The news is set to take the sporting world by storm as the Briton is considered to be Formula 1’s biggest and most marketable super-stars.
Hamilton had no answer to Ferrari driver Sebastian Vettel at the season opening Australian Grand Prix and, according to a highly placed source within the team, when asked to up his pace by his engineer, upon which he responded, “I don’t feel like it mate….”
Before adding, ” I am tired of driving around in circles, rather be at home with Coco and Roscoe and the family.”
In Melbourne he went ahead with the podium ceremony and made all the right soundbites in the wake of the race. But then. instead of staying in that timezone to prepare for the Chinese Grand Prix, he hopped on his jet and went home.
Shortly after returning home he is said to have called Mercedes team chief Toto Wolff with the news that he was quitting to pursue his love for music. He has an album he wants to release this year produced by Jay-Z entitled: Still I Rise in the Fast Lane – a mixture of R&B with Hamilton’s unique (squeaky) vocals.
