Basking in the glory of his second world championship, Max Verstappen can relax until the end of the current season. The Dutchman is already a world champion with four races to go. However, as exciting as it is for the driver, it’s equally bad for the fans. This is the expert opinion of Lewis Hamilton.

Having won the championship on seven different occasions, Hamilton knows a thing or two about the feeling of winning a championship. So after congratulating Verstappen, Hamilton shared his experience and take on winning the championship with races to go.

Speaking to NOS, he said, “You prefer an apotheosis in the last Grand Prix.” (Translated by Google)

“I have experienced it myself a few times, for example, in Mexico. For an athlete, that is great. Ultimately, that is what you do it all for, but for the fans, it is a bit of a shame that the battle has been decided so quickly this year. You also miss the release. It’s just less spectacular,” added Hamilton.

We are sure Hamilton wouldn’t want a repeat of the 2021 season, which was possibly the most exciting conclusion to a season. However, if the winner is not declared until the last race of the season, it keeps the races exciting for the fans.

Hamilton has experienced both feelings. Winning a championship with two races to go and winning one in the dying embers. The Brit prefers the latter.

Speaking further, Hamilton disclosed the championship that meant the most to him. First, he talked about his second championship in 2014, his first with Mercedes, which came after a long dry spell.

Then he talked about his first championship in 2008, which was decided at the very end, much like the 2021 season. “Then the title was won in the last 17 seconds of the race. I’m glad I experienced that. Let’s hope next year will be a little more exciting,” he said.
