Lewis Hamilton is on a three-race ‘probation’ period at Ferrari, reckons Martin Brundle.
Martin Brundle predicts that Lewis Hamilton’s adjustment period at Ferrari will only last for three races before facing increased pressure. Currently, Hamilton is engaging in private Testing of Previous Cars (TPC) with Ferrari prior to the pre-season testing in Bahrain. His main focus is acclimating to Ferrari’s systems and breaking away from the Mercedes muscle memory after 12 seasons. Brundle emphasizes the importance of Hamilton matching the pace of teammate Charles Leclerc from the start, as there are no excuses even at this high level of competition. Despite the challenges, Brundle remains confident that Hamilton, if provided with a competitive car by Ferrari, can excel and potentially win races or championships.
