breaking news; Lewis Hamilton reveal how ferrari can’t afford him…….
Lewis Hamilton has insisted his decision to join Ferrari in 2025 does not need any vindication, as he bemoaned the continued discussion over whether it is the right choice.
Before the start of the 2024 Formula One season, the 39-year-old shocked his Mercedes team by announcing he would be switching at the end of this year. The team’s slump is now entering its third year and they remain far from the leaders, Red Bull, and have also been outpaced by Ferrari this season. Hamilton is enduring the worst start of his career, without a finish in the top six and having scored only 10 points.
Before this weekend’s Chinese Grand Prix, however, the seven-time champion said that he did not feel his decision to leave had been proven right by his team’s performance but rather that what mattered was it was a move he felt happy with.
“I don’t feel like I need my decision vindicating,” he said. “I think I know what’s right for me, and that hasn’t changed since the moment that I made the decision.”
The switch to the Scuderia raised considerable debate, similar to that when Hamilton controversially opted to leave McLaren in 2013 for Mercedes, a team that at the time were far from title contenders. Hamilton unequivocally dismissed such discussion as irrelevant.
