Ahead of the 2026 Formula 1 United States Grand Prix at the Circuit of the Americas, Lewis Hamilton shared his insights on the unpredictable championship battle and offered a witty response regarding the rising young star on the grid. The veteran British driver remains the only competitor to have raced in every single F1 event at Austin, boasting an impressive historical record of pole positions and race victories at the iconic American venue.
The current 2026 season marks a fresh chapter for the seven-time world champion as he now races in iconic red, backed passionately by the loyal Tifosi worldwide. The competitive landscape has shifted dramatically throughout the year, with power swings witnessed between dominant spells from McLaren and charging performances by Red Bull Racing, creating a fascinating hierarchy heading into the final stretch of the championship.
Reflecting on the competitive order at Austin, the 106-time Grand Prix winner emphasized that success hinges entirely on getting the car into its optimal operating window. He noted that while the overall balance of power is unlikely to completely flip compared to recent rounds, unlocking the ideal setup will allow them to fight firmly at the sharp end of the grid.
Meanwhile, the spotlight firmly shines on Kimi Antonelli as he stands on the verge of securing his maiden world championship title. When asked whether he had any wisdom to pass down to his young rival, the British icon initially chuckled before playfully suggesting that the youngster should simply drive slower.
Quickly turning serious, the veteran driver praised the exceptional talent and remarkable composure shown by the 20-year-old throughout such a demanding campaign. He expressed immense pride in the phenomenal job being done by his former racing stable, acknowledging their stellar season in the title fight.
