The Austrian firmly believes that Lewis Hamilton has the ability to handle the politically motivated situations at Ferrari.
It was recently revealed that another driver would be leaving their current team to join the famous Italian team of Ferrari. Hamilton has been highly praised as a driver who could potentially bring back the team’s former success, similar to what another driver had achieved in the past. Now, a respected figure in the motorsport world has provided insights on how Hamilton would navigate the political landscape at Scuderia.
The German driver became a member of the Ferrari team in 1996 and played a crucial role in its growth. This resulted in five consecutive championships between 2000 and 2005 for both Ferrari and the seven-time champion. With the announcement of another seven-time champion’s decision to join the team in Maranello, the Austrian has shared his perspective on how Hamilton would handle the political challenges at his new team.
The 60-year-old individual is highly regarded in the racing community and firmly believes that Hamilton’s extensive experience would enable him to overcome any obstacles that come his way. The ten-time race winner has full confidence in Hamilton’s abilities and predicts that he will follow in the footsteps of the legendary Schumacher.
Berger, who frequently attends various Grand Prix events throughout the year, has witnessed firsthand the dominance of Hamilton. The Austrian has drawn comparisons between Hamilton’s dominance and the exceptional achievements of the seven-time champion, Schumacher.
Berger shared his personal experience, recalling that during Schumacher’s era, he had initially believed that the dominance would not last long. However, as history has shown, Schumacher’s dominance is considered one of the greatest, and the same could be said for Hamilton.
As the current champion, Hamilton is currently preparing for the upcoming season in his formidable manner. In the previous year, the 26-year-old driver broke numerous long-standing records and emerged victorious in 19 out of the 22 races held. Fans, alongside Berger, anticipate that Hamilton will surpass his previous accomplishments and once again establish his dominance on the track.
