The FIA has officially announced its verdict on Max Verstappen following the controversial incident at the Canadian Grand Prix, which saw the Dutchman come under investigation for allegedly forcing another driver off track. After reviewing video evidence and team radio communications, the stewards have decided not to impose any further penalties on Verstappen, ruling that it was a “racing incident.”
This decision has sparked heated debate across the paddock and among fans, especially with Lewis Hamilton’s comments after the race hinting at his growing frustration with the sport.
Hamilton, who finished outside the podium places yet again, spoke candidly in post-race interviews, suggesting he is “weighing his future” in Formula 1. Sources close to the seven-time world champion reveal that Hamilton is genuinely considering retirement at the end of the current season, with Mercedes continuing to struggle against the dominant Red Bull team.
Speaking to reporters, Hamilton said: “I’ve given everything to this sport for so long. But when things don’t change, you start asking yourself if it’s worth it anymore. I’ve got a lot to think about.”
While Mercedes have insisted they are fully behind Hamilton and working to improve the car’s performance, insiders suggest that the lack of competitive machinery is testing Hamilton’s patience more than ever.
Meanwhile, Verstappen’s camp welcomed the FIA’s decision, with Red Bull Team Principal Christian Horner stating: “It was hard racing, and we’re glad the stewards saw it the same way we did.”
With tensions rising and the F1 season heating up, all eyes will now turn to the Austrian Grand Prix later this month — where the futures of two of the sport’s biggest names could become clearer.
