Either Ferrari have shown him something special, or Mercedes are really underwhelming him with whatevers in the pipeline. Possibly both.
I can't believe it's purely a money thing. Lewis is surely still chasing another title above all else?
Ferrari is the place where former world champions go to become old and bitter wearing red jumpsuits. Itโs not the place where you have a great final act to your sport career.
And I say this as a life long Ferrari fan.
Just look at Seb. Since he left Ferrari he looks like heโs having fun again!
I think Seb was having fun because he no longer felt stressed about trying to win a world championship. His new focus was to do as well as possible, but not necessarily the best.
Absolutely. But thatโs part and parcel of the Ferrari curse. Every time itโs โthis is going to be the yearโ and then itโs not. Itโs very much not.
Still, ๐
Same with Fernando :(
Right? Heโs got mad โdad messing around with the kids showing them how itโs doneโ energy now, instead of โsad man in red pajama pining for the glory daysโ
Thatโs what I think too. Itโs either that or just wanting to race in Red for a year or two before retirement.
I think weโll know pretty quickly if the Merc is a shitbox next year, which will explain a lot.
I guess that his favourite engineer leaving for Ferrari and some simulator time convinced him...
Which engineer left for Ferrari?
Merc head of vehicle performance loic something is his name I think. Apparently him and Hamilton agreed that merc was taking the car in the wrong direction.
Loic Serra
