David Coulthard alega que Lewis Hamilton, desanimado, abandonou a esperança na Mercedes e está ansioso para correr com a Ferrari.

The drop in performance of Mercedes has led Lewis Hamilton to consider racing for Ferrari starting in 2025. The 2024 season for Mercedes has been similar to their results in 2023. The team had high hopes for their challenger W15 and expected to achieve great results throughout the season. However, the W15 challenger proved to be average in terms of speed, resulting in the team finishing fourth in the constructors’ championship. Former Red Bull driver David Coulthard commented on the team’s performance and its impact on Lewis Hamilton.

Coulthard believes that Hamilton has not yet found his rhythm with the car. While the team works to improve lap times, the 39-year-old driver is struggling to keep up. Coulthard suggests that, due to the disappointing performance of the Mercedes cars, Hamilton’s focus has shifted to Maranello, where Ferrari is based, and he is less concerned about his final season with Mercedes.

Jordan, a friend of David Coulthard and former F1 team owner, agrees with Coulthard’s assessment of Hamilton’s mindset. Jordan believes that the seven-time world champion is disheartened by the current state of Mercedes. He also points out that the team’s performance is no different from last year and criticizes their weak start to the season.

Furthermore, Jordan questions Mercedes’ ability to compete with other teams on the track. He suggests that, aside from Ferrari, no other team has a real chance of challenging Red Bull for the championship. This puts even more pressure on Lewis Hamilton to perform exceptionally well in order to score points for the team. If the situation remains the same, the seven-time world champion may not even be able to compete for the world championship. Therefore, the team in Brackley urgently needs to improve their performance and aim for a strong finish in the 2024 season.
