F1’s most successful driver Lewis Hamilton will reportedly leave Mercedes for Ferrari in a shock move.
SKY Sports reports that Hamilton will join Ferrari in 2025 and replace Carlos Sainz. The 39-year-old’s current contract with Mercedes was due to expire at the end of 2025.
In his official statement, Lewis Hamilton revealed that he felt it was the right time for him to take on a new challenge.
“I have had an amazing 11 years with this team and I’m so proud of what we have achieved together. Mercedes has been part of my life since I was 13 years old. It’s a place where I have grown up, so making the decision to leave was one of the hardest decisions I have ever had to make. But the time is right for me to take this step and I’m excited to be taking on a new challenge. I will be forever grateful for the incredible support of my Mercedes family, especially Toto for his friendship and leadership and I want to finish on a high together. I am 100% committed to delivering the best performance I can this season and making my last year with the Silver Arrows, one to remember.”
