Sir Lewis Hamilton will bid adieu to the silver arrows after his final race in Abu Dhabi. Hamilton\u2019s term with Mercedes is coming to an end after 12 glorious years. This weekend will be his final race with Mercedes. And he will make a Switch to Ferrari in 2025.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Brit has won 84 races during his tenure with them and has led the team to 8 constructors championships.<\/span><\/p>\n

In his debut Grand Prix with the arrows, he finished on the podium. This was a promising start to his career, as he later won his first Grand Prix with Mercedes, the Hungarian GP.<\/span><\/p>\n

The British driver did not begin his career at Mercedes, but rather with McLaren, where he won his first driver\u2019s title in 2008. Later, he had a slump in his career with McLaren and joined Mercedes in 2013. As a result, he won six driver titles: 2014, 2015, 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2020.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hamilton is the only driver in Formula One history to match Michael Schumacher\u2019s record of seven world championship wins.<\/span><\/p>\n

In 2021, he was once again leading the way, but this time he was up against a challenger from Red Bull adversary and eventual four-time World Champion: Max Verstappen. The season\u2019s last race was a debatable one, with Verstappen beating Hamilton by a single point while Mercedes kept the title.<\/span><\/p>\n

Mercedes then plummeted down the order, dragging Hamilton\u2019s form with it. It has struggled to stay up with the other teams, winning only five races in three years, including a winless 2023.<\/span><\/p>\n

The 39-year-old has had a terrible season with his W15, frequently expressing his unhappiness. He was consistently outpaced by George Russell, despite both drivers winning two races each.<\/span><\/p>\n

As the season comes to an end, Hamilton will undoubtedly want to put the agony behind him and reflect on the memories he has made with a squad that propelled him to the top.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hamilton now has the opportunity to write a new chapter in his Formula One career at Ferrari, but whether he goes down in history as the record holder remains to be seen.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n
