F1, Lewis Hamilton returns to the old ways

Marc Hynes returns to Lewis Hamilton’s staff

Lewis Hamilton wants to return to the glories of yesteryear and, after a couple of seasons with very little satisfaction and many headaches, he welcomes back to his staff Marc Hynes, the longtime manager with whom he interrupted the association at the end of the 2021 season, the one of the World Championship lost at the last corner of the Abu Dhabi GP to Max Verstappen.

Revealing the move by the multi-time Mercedes world champion è the 'Telegraph' which reports in the margin of the news the words of a spokesman for Hamilton: "Lewis is looking forward to the start of the new Formula 1 season and will work with Marc Hynes, his longtime friend and former colleague who will provide his expertise to assist Lewis on the track".

"Marc will focus exclusively on track activities,” added the spokesman for #44, “and will support Lewis’s efforts to return to fighting for first place". Hynes, himself a racing driver (winner of several British series in the '90s) worked with Hamilton from 2016 to 2021, accompanying him in winning four world titles.

With the renewed staff, Lewis Hamilton will run his 18th season in Formula 1 this 2024. In his trophy cabinet, the Stevenage-born 1985 class has seven World Championships, a record shared with Michael Schumacher: one title he won at the wheel of McLaren in 2008, the others all with Mercedes (2014, 2015, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020).
