LONDON (Reuters) - Lewis Hamilton turned 37 on Friday with Formula One wondering when the seven times world champion will break the silence surrounding him since the season ended in uproar last month.

The Mercedes driver was less than a lap away from a record eighth title in Abu Dhabi nL1N2SX080 on Dec. 12 when he was passed by Red Bull rival Max Verstappen after race director Michael Masi changed the safety car procedure.
