Former race winner at Ferrari Jean Alesi has cast his opinion over Hamilton’s move from Mercedes to Ferrari from next season.
Former Ferrari race winner Jean Alesi believes Lewis Hamilton’s arrival will have a “gigantic” impact on the team due to his media value. Hamilton, a seven-time world champion, has become a global superstar and his presence will boost Ferrari’s profile worldwide. Alesi also stated that Hamilton’s intelligence and competitiveness make him a formidable driver. Despite having Charles Leclerc as his future teammate, Alesi believes Hamilton’s presence will not create a first and second driver hierarchy, as the team cannot technically have different cars. Qualifying and races will determine the internal hierarchy and make the competition within Ferrari more compelling.
