Hamilton was on course to become an eight-time champion in the last race of the 2021 season in Abu Dhabi but fell short. However, in an interaction with the Italian edition of Motorsport.com, Wolff said that Hamilton should be proud of the seven titles he has already won and looks good for more.
Regarding the events in Abu Dhabi last year, the Mercedes boss has said that he has accepted Max Verstappen as the champion, but the sporting value ‘kicked down’ that day.
Wolff did however praise Lewis Hamilton’s ability to start afresh when the new season started and his ability to be the most positive person in the team. Wolff said:

He added about the cooler temperature in qualifying helping the team.
He added:
Lewis Hamilton’s performances this season has been a breath of fresh air for the team struggling to come to terms with the new regulations.
