Seven-time world champion and British driver for Ferrari, Lewis Hamilton, confirmed that he chose to prioritize his career in Formula 1 over family.

I see other drivers and I wonder how they manage: some have children, are married, have girlfriends. I went through that when I was in my twenties. I made a different choice: I decided to maximise the time I have here [in F1] because it's shorter than people think. For the last ten years, I've focused on my performance.
The 40-year-old officially joined Ferrari in January 2025. So far this season, he has yet to secure a win in any Grand Prix.
After 13 races, Lewis Hamilton is currently in sixth place in the drivers' championship, trailing leader Oscar Piastri from McLaren by 157 points.
It's worth noting that during his 11 years with Mercedes, he won seven Formula 1 titles. Previously, Spanish driver Carlos Sainz Jr. from Williams discussed the struggles Hamilton faced after his move to Ferrari.
