Lewis Hamilton has showcased a decent performance in his final season with Mercedes. The Briton headed into the 2024 campaign with no hopes of ending it on a high. However, the 39-year-old scored two highly coveted race wins and performed well.

Regardless, multiple individuals still berated the seven-time world champion, which Hamilton couldn’t quite understand. Lewis Hamilton is one of the greatest if not the greatest talents in the sport solely due to his performances. The Briton has enjoyed an era of utter dominance where he was loved a lot by everyone.

However, with great dominance comes great hate from the fans as Hamilton is still ill-talked a lot. He noted that many people still talked ‘sh*t’ about him in media or amongst the drivers. God knows how many people continuously talk [sh*t] about me.

In the media or drivers, whatever it may be. Lewis Hamilton said in an pre-US GP conferenceSpeaking of the massive hate, Hamilton believed there was no correct response to these comments. The seven-time world champion claimed that there was no point in replying to the untoward hate.

However, showing up to the grid unfazed and continuing to perform well mattered more than the response to the hate. And you know what? There’s no point in replying.

It’s probably the same for all of you, it’s about how you show up and do what you do. Lewis Hamilton added#F1 | Lewis Hamilton: “God knows how many people continuously talk [sh*t] about me. In the media or drivers, whatever it may be.
