Hamilton facing Ferrari SHOCK as MONSTROUS £84 million blow…read more
Lewis Hamilton is making headlines in Formula 1 as he prepares for a potential move to Ferrari, a shift backed by F1 legend Nigel Mansell. Mansell, who won the world championship at age 39, believes Hamilton has the ability and motivation to continue competing at a high level, even as he nears 40. He suggests that Ferrari could be the key to Hamilton’s eighth world title, something Hamilton has been chasing since narrowly missing out in 2021.
This potential move to Ferrari also comes at a time when Hamilton’s relationship with Mercedes has become more uncertain. Mercedes, which once dominated F1, has struggled to regain its form in recent years, and Hamilton has lost confidence in their ability to provide a competitive car. Ferrari, on the other hand, has shown promise in its development plans, with team principal Fred Vasseur playing a pivotal role in convincing Hamilton to join.
In addition to his personal motivations, Hamilton’s deal with Ferrari represents a significant financial commitment, as a £84 million investment by the Scuderia has been revealed, aiming to secure Hamilton’s services from 2025. This reflects Ferrari’s ambition to end their championship drought, which has lasted since 2008.
However, Ferrari is not the only team facing financial challenges. Other teams on the grid are also contending with significant financial losses, as revealed by an official document. Despite these hurdles, Ferrari seems optimistic about their future, with Hamilton as a centerpiece of their plans to challenge Red Bull’s dominance in the coming seasons.
Additionally, a separate story has emerged about a shock leader in driver DNFs (Did Not Finish), further shaking up the standings this season. Hamilton, however, remains focused on his next chapter with Ferrari, ready to take on the challenge and possibly cap his illustrious career with a historic achievement.
