Former Formula 1 team owner asserts that he would have opted for Carlos Sainz instead of Lewis Hamilton at Ferrari.

Lewis Hamilton is set to switch to the red of Ferrari starting in 2025. The former seven-time world champion’s move to the Maranello-based F1 team has caused quite a stir. While many pundits are optimistic about this decision, former team owner Giancarlo Minardi disagrees and believes that Ferrari made a mistake by signing Hamilton.

Minardi thinks that Ferrari should have stuck with their current driver and offered him a contract extension instead of making a flashy move for 2025. He sees this move as nothing more than a marketing stunt. In a conversation with Leo Turrini for Quotidiano, Minardi expressed his dissatisfaction with Ferrari’s decision and even suggested that there are no guarantees of Hamilton’s success alongside his new teammate.

Although Hamilton’s move to Ferrari has been announced, it will not be a reality until the 2024 F1 season is over. With less than a month left until the season begins, the anticipation is building around how Hamilton will react when he comes face to face with the Ferrari cars. Known for his determination in intense race situations, it is expected that there will be fireworks when he competes against Carlos Sainz and Charles Leclerc on the track.

Fans from all around the world will be closely watching Hamilton’s performance during the 2024 F1 season. While Mercedes is still his current team, they will expect him to give his all. Despite his age, Hamilton remains as fast as ever and can play a vital role in determining Mercedes’ position in this year’s campaign.
