F1 | Hamilton: “Schumacher's winning record? It's not something impossible."
"But it won't just depend on me, but also on the cars I will drive," underlined the four-time world champion
In addition to having won the fourth world title of his career, 2017 will also be remembered by Lewis Hamilton for having first reached and then surpassed the pole position record held by Michael Schumacher.
The German champion still holds the record for all-time victories (91), from which the Mercedes Englishman is currently 29 victories away.
Hamilton clearly didn't want to go too far on the subject, but at the time he doesn't leave him indifferent: "It will depend on a combination of factors. I think I can still win races for many years, but it doesn't just depend on me but also on the cars I drive. Honestly, I don't want to run after Michael's records, even though obviously I'm much closer today than I was a few years ago. In the past winning 91 Grands Prix in my career seemed impossible to me, but now I don't know. The road is still long, but it's not something impossible for me".
