Fittipaldi wants to see Hamilton win seventh world title 'at another team'

Two-time Formula 1 world champion Emerson Fittipaldi reckons that Lewis Hamilton could become even greater by winning a championship with a different team.

It is rumoured that the six-time world champion may leave the Silver Arrows at the end of his contract and possibly link up with rivals Ferrari.

Hamilton has already won titles with both Mercedes and McLaren, but Fittipaldi believes that a seventh with another team on the great would solidify his legend.

He told Standard Sport: “I’d like to see him go to one of the other top three teams and winning a world title elsewhere would add to his curriculum.

“To win a world title for yet another team, that would make him even greater."

Irrespective of whether the British driver decides to call it a day with Toto Wolff and his team or remain at Mercedes, Fittipaldi believes that Hamilton will still go down as one of the greatest F1 drivers in history.

“The numbers don’t lie. I’m sure there’s more winning ahead of him to create history.”

Hamilton is looking to chase down a seventh career drivers championship and equal the record of F1 legend Michael Schumacher, a challenge that the 73-year-old thinks can be accomplished.

“In any sport, it’s all about the numbers. That’s what counts and I think he can break that record. He has the physical condition, the psychological and spiritual condition to go forward.”
