It is the most spectacular change in professional sport since Neymar joined PSG: Lewis Hamilton will drive for Ferrari from 2025. Who is coming to whom here: the Brit to the Scuderia? Or Ferrari to become a star driver?
What did Lewis Hamilton win last? Nothing more. From his point of view, he was behind in Formula 1. Behind Max Verstappen, the series winner and three-time world champion, but above all behind his demands to be the best driver in the best car. Apparently this thought motivated him to change something.
Winners like Hamilton don’t give up and don’t take it easy. They are always looking. And if necessary, they leave everything behind. In this case, more than a fantastic career at and with Mercedes. Over eleven years, a relationship developed between driver and team boss Toto Wolff that seemed inseparable, as if merged into an eternal unit. That’s what the entire industry thought when the duo announced the contract extension a few months ago until the end of the 2025 season – in Ferrariland, in Monza. Think.
