Hamilton remains! F1 star strengthens Vasseur despite Ferrari crisis

Stuttgart, Deutschland - Lewis Hamilton, the Formula 1 record world champion, recently reacted to rumors about his possible career end and made a clear position. Before the Grand Prix of Canada in Montreal, he emphasized that he would not give up and would like to continue attacking with Ferrari with full vigor. "I just started at Ferrari and plan to stay there for several years," said Hamilton, who is fighting for sixth place in the World Championship in the current season, like Stuttgarter Nachrichten

In the middle of the crisis at Ferrari, where team boss Frédéric Vasseur is threatened, Hamilton made it clear that he was fully behind Vasseur. He explained that he was the main reason for his switch to Ferrari. Hamilton is convinced: "It takes time to build a new team structure", and a replacement of Vasseur is not for debate.

Review of the last season with Mercedes

The past season was a roller coaster ride for Hamilton. He left Mercedes after 12 years and announced his move to Ferrari, which was a surprise for many. The last year with Mercedes was not optimal; The team had to deal with challenges that ran out of the previous seasons. But Hamilton celebrated an emotional victory at the British Grand Prix, his first since 2021 Saudi Arabic GP, and also secured another victory in Belgium, according to Formula. Over the course of last season, Hamilton also had to fight with difficulties, especially with regard to his qualifications. Experts had suspected that moving to Ferrari had sporting reasons because he has not been able to win a title since 2021. Hamilton will be 40 years old at the beginning of the 2025 season, in which he will replace Carlos Sainz at Ferrari, and his last World Cup title was a long time ago: 2008 for Ferrari.

The future at Ferrari

Hamilton has signed a "multi -year contract" at Ferrari while Sainz clears its place. This decision was certainly not easy, even if Hamilton emphasized that saying goodbye to Mercedes was one of the toughest of his life. Team boss Toto Wolff described the partnership as the most successful in the history of sport. Hamilton had won a total of 103 racing wins with Mercedes and won his last seven World Cup titles, which cemented its place in the history book of motorsport.

With all these thoughts in the head, the question remains whether Hamilton can boost up the upward trend at Ferrari. It is clear that the record world champion will do everything possible to successfully continue his personal chapter in Formula 1 and maybe soon be on the top podium again, as is so often the case in his previous career, report Motorsport .
