Lewis Hamilton is trading a Mercedes for a Ferrari in 2025 – and the CEO reckons he is back to his best.
Ferrari CEO Benedetto Vigna has signaled that Lewis Hamilton is “back in the game” and issued a warning to their F1 competitors. Hamilton, who recently turned 40, has faced challenges in the past seasons with Mercedes due to uncompetitive cars and questions about his age and motivation. Vigna highlighted Hamilton’s wealth of experience and champion mindset he brings to Ferrari, emphasizing his ability to provide technical guidance and embrace change fearlessly. Hamilton’s first test day with Ferrari’s 2022 F1 car at Fiorano is set for today, following a visit to the team’s factory in Maranello where he posed with his favorite supercar, the F40. The partnership between Hamilton and Ferrari marks an exciting new chapter in the F1 world, as the seven-time champion looks to make an impact with his new team.
