"No, that is Lewis wearing his heart on his sleeve," Wolff explained to Motorsport.com and other media. "It's what he thought very much when he was asked after the session was very raw.
"He was doubting himself, and we had it in the past. When he felt that he had underperformed his own expectations, and the team had its own goal, he's been that emotional, emotionally transparent since he was a young boy, a young adult.
"So, he's going to beat himself up. He's the GOAT. And he will always be the GOAT, and nobody's going to take that away. For sure, no single weekend or race season that hasn't gone to plan."
When asked if he could see Hamilton deciding to retire from the series, Wolff added: "Lewis has unfinished business in Formula 1. In the same way that Mercedes underperformed over this latest set of regulations since 2022, he kind of never got happy with ground effect cars, in the same way, it beats him. Maybe it's linked to driving style.
"So, he shouldn't go anywhere. Next year, brand new cars, completely different to drive, new power units that need an intelligent way of managing the energy.
"So, that's absolutely on for Lewis, and I hope he stays on for many more years, and certainly next year is going to be an important one."
Hamilton has been eyeing up an eighth championship title since losing out to Max Verstappen in 2021. Wolff still believes the former Mercedes driver can clinch that title if he "has a car underneath him that he has confidence in, that does what he wants."
"If he has a car that's not giving him the feedback that he wants, and that was the Mercedes of the past few years, and that seems to be the Ferrari, and even worse, then not. But you ask me whether he has it, he definitely has it."
