Formula 1 Announces Update on Lewis Hamilton’s Ferrari Signing
The Formula 1 community is abuzz with excitement as the 2025 season approaches, and the official F1 website has just provided a significant update on Lewis Hamilton’s highly anticipated move to Ferrari. The seven-time world champion officially joined the Italian team at the beginning of the year, marking a new chapter in his illustrious career.
Hamilton, who celebrated his 40th birthday in January, is set to compete in his 19th F1 season, and he will be looking to bounce back from a few disappointing years at Mercedes. With Ferrari, Hamilton will have the opportunity to add to his record-breaking 105 victories and potentially claim an eighth world title, cementing his status as the greatest driver of all time.
As the F1 community eagerly awaits Hamilton’s Ferrari debut, team principal Fred Vasseur has confirmed that the champion will get behind the wheel of an older car at the team’s private test track, Fiorano, later this month. Hamilton will be paired with Charles Leclerc this season, and the two drivers are expected to be evenly matched. However, if Ferrari provides them with a championship-winning car, the lineup could become a point of contention, particularly given Leclerc’s hunger for his first world title.
Leclerc’s qualifying struggles last year could potentially hinder Hamilton’s chances of claiming an eighth title, but the official F1 website is looking forward to this exciting driver pairing for 2025. In a major update, the website has changed its driver and team profiles to reflect the new lineup, with Hamilton’s name now appearing alongside Leclerc’s on the Ferrari team page.
Although Hamilton’s image is yet to be updated to show him in Ferrari overalls, the change is a significant one, marking the beginning of a new era for the Italian team. The update also includes all other driver signings for the 2025 season, which has seen changes to exactly 50% of the seats compared to the start of the 2024 season.
As the F1 community continues to buzz with excitement, all eyes will be on Hamilton and Ferrari as they prepare for the upcoming season. With a new team and a new challenge ahead of him, Hamilton will be looking to prove himself once again as one of the greatest drivers in the history of the sport.
