Lewis Hamilton makes a surprising move to Ferrari in the 2025 F1 season, replacing Carlos Sainz. This news emerged earlier this year and marks a significant change for Hamilton, who has been with Mercedes for over a decade. According to former F1 team owner Eddie Jordan, this decision is the right one considering Mercedes’ recent struggles. The team has been unable to achieve consistent results and the W15 car has been disappointing since the start of the season. Jordan believes that Hamilton will be able to regain his form with Ferrari.
Hamilton has signed a multi-year contract with the Italian team, fulfilling a childhood dream. With this move, he may receive preferential treatment compared to his teammate, Charles Leclerc. The dynamics between the two drivers will be interesting to observe. Red Bull Racing has also announced the departure of their chief technical director, Adrian Newey, in the coming months. It is speculated that Hamilton’s role in this decision should not be underestimated.
Although Hamilton has never had the opportunity to work directly with Newey in the past, he has expressed interest in collaborating with him. Many teams are currently interested in Newey’s services, and the news of Hamilton’s move to Ferrari may impact his decision. The coming months will provide more clarity on where Newey will go for the next season.
