Ferrari are bringing in Lewis Hamilton after a stint with Mercedes, but the team doesn't want to 'copy-paste' the formula.
For the first time in over a decade, Lewis Hamilton will kick off a Formula 1 season as a non-Mercedes driver. Instead, he’ll don the deep red of Scuderia Ferrari for the first time in his career.In 2013, Lewis Hamilton made an audacious, career-defining move, hedging his bets on the Mercedes team the season before a new set of technical regulations that turned the tides away from Red Bull and towards Mercedes.
It should come as no surprise, then, that Lewis Hamilton was keen on a change of scenery heading into 2025, or that he’s opted for a stint at the legendary Scuderia Ferrari.But Ferrari team principal Fred Vasseur isn’t interested in all that came before. Instead, he’s imagining a very different future for his latest star at the Scuderia — one that may look different than anything either he or Hamilton have done before.
However, that’s a strategy that often fails, if only because it is almost impossible to perfectly replicate the patterns and variables that fell into place in a previous era.
