Lewis Hamilton Comments Out On News To Join Ferrari In 2025
Since 2013, Lewis Hamilton has been a member of the Mercedes squad.
It was possibly the most surprising piece of news in recent motorsport history to rock the Formula 1 world: British driver Lewis Hamilton will be joining Ferrari in 2025 after leaving the Mercedes team at the end of the 2024 season.
Hamilton, who is perhaps the most successful driver in Formula 1 history, transferred from McLaren to Mercedes in 2013. There, he won six world championships and finished in second place twice. Now, he hopes to further cement his legend with Ferrari, the top team in the division.
To Sky Sports, Hamilton gave his explanation for why he left Mercedes to join the Italian squad.
Lewis Hamilton, who extended his contract with Mercedes until 2024, nevertheless desired to leave the company. At 39 years old, he has returned to Maranello to realize a childhood dream of wearing red and leaving the Mercedes world, with which he has been associated since 2007—either as an engine or part of a squad.
When pressed, Mercedes and Ferrari were forced to move the announcement to this afternoon since they were unable to refute an agreement that Corriere della Sera had revealed.
Additionally, Mercedes had to quickly call its employees in the afternoon to inform them of the news first. It did so in ten minutes, informing the startled staff members of the news before confirming it at two o’clock in the evening.
