Ferrari team principal wasn’t keen to answer another question about Lewis Hamilton while speaking to media at the Japanese Grand Prix.
Ferrari Team Principal Frederic Vasseur dismissed a question about Lewis Hamilton following the Japanese Grand Prix. The speculation around Hamilton’s move from Mercedes to Ferrari in 2025 has been a major topic this year, seen as a significant driver transfer in F1 history. Hamilton’s reaction to a question hinting at his Ferrari future led to him walking away from a post-race session in Suzuka. Vasseur also shut down a question about his 2025 driver, as Carlos Sainz achieved Ferrari’s fifth podium of the season in Japan. Sainz, who continues to shine in his final season before Hamilton joins, has impressed with podium finishes in every race he’s contested this year. Vasseur’s response to questions on Hamilton’s future underlined his frustration: “We have the same question each weekend. Do a copy-paste of my reply of last week, next one.”
