F1 fans recently reacted to Lewis Hamilton's explanation of his downbeat radio message after the 2024 F1 Brazilian GP. The seven-time world champion openly admitted that he was not keen on coming back to racing this season after a poor performance at Interlagos.
In Brazil, the Mercedes star was nowhere near the top grid spots in sprint and also in Sunday's Grand Prix. In the sprint, he managed to finish P11, and in qualifying, he was knocked out in Q1 itself. In the main races, he managed to score a single point by finishing P10.
Since Brazil and its race weekend have always been near and dear to Hamilton, he was extremely downbeat. After the race, he gave a sorrowful radio message, hinting that this was his last race of the season, even though the calendar had three more to go.
