Is this Hamilton's last year? "I don't know if I'll still be here next year"

Lewis Hamilton admits that he is not sure if he will still be racing in Formula 1 in 2021. The Brit says it's also important what Mercedes team boss Toto Wolff will do next season.
The end of an era?
Hamilton is asked about Wolff's position at the press conference after the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix. "I don't know if I'll still be here next year, so it's not really a concern of mine. I understand and we have a lot of deep conversations, so I am very aware of where he is mentally and we share and carry a lot of weight together," says the six-time world champion.
Hamilton can well imagine that Wolff wants to withdraw a bit to spend more time with family, for example. And should Wolff actually take a step back, Hamilton is sure that Wolff will find the right person to follow him. "He will find the right people."
Formula 1 is not everything
"I feel great. I feel strong. I feel like I can hold out for months to come, but there are several things that are stuck in my head. I would like to be here next year, but there is no guarantee for that. There is much more I am excited about, time will tell," concludes Hamilton.
