BREAKING NEWS: Lewis Hamilton Backs Ferrari to Win 2025 F1 World Championship
Seven-time Formula 1 world champion Lewis Hamilton has expressed his conviction that Ferrari possesses the necessary ingredients to win the 2025 F1 world championship title. Hamilton, who recently joined Ferrari after a successful stint with Mercedes, shared his thoughts on the team’s prospects during a media interaction at Fiorano.
Hamilton, who got acquainted with his new SF-25 machine for the first time on Wednesday, emphasized that Ferrari’s passion, leadership, and approach make them a formidable contender for the championship. When asked if he believed Ferrari was capable of winning the world championship, Hamilton responded affirmatively, citing his experience of working with two world championship-winning teams, McLaren and Mercedes.
Hamilton elaborated on his reasoning, stating that Ferrari has all the essential elements required to win a world championship. He praised the team’s passion, leadership, and commitment to excellence, highlighting that everyone at Ferrari is focused on elevating their performance in every area. Hamilton also commended the team’s leader, Fred Vassuer, as well as Ferrari president John Elkann and CEO Benedetto Vigna, for their calm and methodical approach.
Hamilton’s endorsement of Ferrari’s championship prospects is significant, given his vast experience and success in the sport. As he seeks to become the second driver in F1 history to win drivers’ titles with three or more teams, Hamilton’s confidence in Ferrari’s abilities will undoubtedly serve as a boost to the team’s morale.
If Hamilton were to win the title with Ferrari, he would achieve a historic feat, becoming the first driver since Juan Manuel Fangio in 1956 to win with at least three teams. Fangio, an Argentine legend, won his fourth crown with Ferrari in 1956. A championship victory for Hamilton would also mark Ferrari’s first drivers’ title since Kimi Raikkonen’s triumph in 2007 and their first constructors’ title since 2008.
As the 2025 F1 season approaches, Hamilton’s optimism about Ferrari’s chances will undoubtedly generate excitement among fans and pundits alike. With their rich history, passionate fan base, and talented driver lineup, Ferrari is poised to make a strong challenge for the championship, and Hamilton’s confidence in their abilities only adds to the anticipation.
