Lewis Hamilton: Age Impacting F1 Performance, Nico Rosberg Warns of Decline

Nico Rosberg Drops Bombshell: Is Lewis Hamilton’s Age Catching Up with Him in F1?

Former Formula 1 champion Nico Rosberg has set tongues wagging with his recent comments suggesting that age might be hindering Lewis Hamilton’s performance on the track. Despite Hamilton’s illustrious career with Mercedes, he has faced challenges in recent years and is now being outpaced by his Ferrari teammate Charles Leclerc, reminiscent of what happened with George Russell at Mercedes.

Rosberg, in a bold statement, pointed out that at 40 years old, Hamilton could be experiencing a natural decline in pace, particularly in qualifying where even the slightest deficits can be game-changing. Drawing comparisons to Fernando Alonso, Rosberg noted that while Alonso remained competitive until he was 40, Hamilton’s decline may have arrived earlier.

“It’s a continuation of last year’s form, where there was already a slight drop, and George had the advantage,” Rosberg told Sky F1. “He also finished ahead in points. The situation remains, lacking a bit here and there, especially with the ultimate pace in qualifying. We know Charles is excellent in qualifying, so Lewis has to dig a bit deeper.”

Rosberg emphasized, “Even the best of all time, at some point, will slow down a bit. This is related to age. When you’re 40, it will happen sooner rather than later. So the question is whether the age has come where you start to get a little slower. Even a tenth makes a huge difference in this sport, especially when facing some of the best from the new generation, like Charles Leclerc, who is considered one of the best qualifiers in the world.”

The racing world is now abuzz with speculation about Hamilton’s future in F1 and whether his age is indeed becoming a factor in his performance. As fans eagerly await the next Grand Prix, all eyes will be on Hamilton to see if he can silence the doubters and prove that age is just a number in the fast-paced world of Formula 1.
