Lewis Hamilton is 37 years old and has been racing in Formula 1 since 2007. His latest contract with the Mercedes AMG F1 team expires at the end of the 2023 season. There have been no reports from either party about a contract extension and their desire to continue beyond the next season. So the future of the 7-time world champion is still unclear to his fans.

But since Hamilton has made no statements about retiring after 2023, it would be interesting to see if he drives for another racing series. And now, Trackhouse Racing’s co-owner Justin Marks reveals that he would love to have the Mercedes driver in NASCAR.
