Ecclestone says that Hamilton should retire from F1 ｜ DPA

Bernie Eckeston, former Formula One president, believes that world champion Luis Hamilton should consider retirement in the wake of bad results.

Hamilton, 40, had started a difficult start in Ferrari after 12 years in Mercedes, where he won six of his seven titles in the world.

Aside from the victory of the race in China, it surpassed his teammate Charles Licerk. He finished the twelfth place in the last grand prize race on Sunday in Hungary, where he said after the qualifiers that he was “useless” and suggested that Ferrari be replaced.

Ecclestone, 94, who has been running sport from 40 years to 2017, told Britain Daily Mail that Hamilton should put an end to the frustrated stage and call it a day in sport.

“The man is not cheating. But he was betraying himself if he continued. He must stop now,” Eckson said.

“If you take care of him, I will negotiate with Ferrari immediately and say,” If you have someone to replace Lewis, he will step down. “

Hamilton has a Ferrari contract for three seasons, but Ecclestone said: “Louis is tired. He was doing what he was doing forever. He needs a rest from him forever, which is a complete reset to do something completely different.

He may not think about it, but it will soon get used to doing other things away from the car racing in retirement. I think he should have been doing it a while ago. “

Ecclestone added: “I do not want anything bad for Lewis.

“He does not need to risk anymore. He won seven international titles and this is enough.”
