Speculation Surrounding Hamilton’s Potential Move to Ferrari

Lewis Hamilton to Ferrari Rumors Resurface Amid Contract Speculations

Recent rumors circulating in the Formula 1 community suggest the possibility of Lewis Hamilton joining Ferrari for the 2025 season. Italian website Formu1a.uno claims that the delay in confirming Carlos Sainz’s contract extension and Ferrari’s strategic partnerships hint at a potential move for the seven-time world champion.

Ferrari recently extended Charles Leclerc’s contract but did not provide details about Sainz’s future with the team. The Italian outfit also announced a partnership with Peroni Nastro Azzurro 0.0%, a beer brand owned by the Asahi Europe & International group. This move came after the team had a long-standing partnership with Spanish brand Estrella Galicia, a sponsor of Sainz, which subsequently switched to McLaren.

The report from Formu1a.uno suggests that Ferrari is exploring the possibility of bringing Lewis Hamilton on board for the 2025 season alongside Charles Leclerc. Talks are said to have taken place directly with Ferrari’s President, John Elkann. While nothing has been officially confirmed, the report raises the prospect of a sensational announcement in the coming days.

The “Hamilton to Ferrari” rumors have been persistent in Formula 1 discussions for years, even when Hamilton was achieving tremendous success with Mercedes. However, the recent struggles of both Ferrari and Mercedes on the track have led to renewed speculations about a potential move.

Hamilton, who extended his contract with Mercedes until the end of 2025 in August of the previous year, hinted at the possibility of taking a sabbatical if Mercedes fails to make significant improvements. As always, Hamilton has refrained from commenting on the recent rumors.

Formula 1 fans are eagerly awaiting official announcements to confirm or dispel the rumors, adding an intriguing twist to the ongoing narratives in the motorsport world.
