Hamilton says more committed to F1 than ever at 41

The seven-time world champion has made a strong start to the season with Ferrari and is fourth in the championship after two races, 18 points behind leader George Russell of Mercedes. Hamilton finished third in China to claim a podium place for the first time since joining Ferrari ahead of the 2025 season, and he said he had been putting in the hard yards ahead of this week's Japanese Grand Prix. "I was in Tokyo between this race and the last race, I've run like 100 kilometres," the Briton said.
