Why are these MUPPETS not even questioning WHY 250 ex Mercedes Staff have recently jumped ship to other Teams like Red Bull, McLaren & Ferrari. . . (an eye whopping 25% of the employees) highlighting that something WITHIN Mercedes is fundamentally wrong. Yes ppl leave teams all the time, but NOT in such large numbers‼️ But hey-ho, all these Muppets can focus on is Lewis Hamilton!!! 🥴😏
Ferrari is the biggest brand in f1 by a wide margin....these brits can do whatever mental gymnastics they want, its a fact that ferrari has the biggest pull in motorsport
You win the idiotic comment of the day award. This move has got nothing to do with brand, it's simply him knowing that he won't win another title with Mercedes, so he's gone to the best team he can to try there. Red Bull and McLaren weren't options. That leaves Ferrari. His third choice !
I think he understands the situation. The situation is no one is catching and beating RB and Max in these regs. I think he sees this as a great swan song for the end of his career. Winning some races with Ferrari and donning the Red. I also believe he sees Ferrari as being more competitive than Merc will be and therefore giving him a slightly better shot at an 8th. I think he knows its far fetched to think anyone is beating Max and RB anytime soon though. I find it to be a good move for him to finish his career.
Indeed. Merc or Ferrari need to build a better car then RB due to Max' insane consistent performance, to have any chance of a championship. There is no guarantee the Ferrari will provide one for LH. But at least he could possibly elevate the team and make a personal wish come true.
I have observed that Lewis’s mechanics didn’t stay back on some tracks to cheer when he got a podium. I think Lewis will get more of a better reception from the Ferrari engineers.
Exactly ! A race where he got on the podium .. It was Fred that was there to cheer him and the Ferrari mechanics. No Merc mechanics in sight some excuse from Merc about the cameras only showing Ferrari cause they beat Red Bull. I think they have all moved onto Golden Boy and think he is the 2nd coming cause he beat Lewis in his first season at Merc but yet Lewis beat him last year. It may or may not be a good move for Lewis but time will tell. He may not win his 8th but he may get some race wins at the very least.
Toto 'lost the dressing room'. He didn't keep Russell under proper control in 2023 and Hamilton had to do it on the track. He allowed Mercedes team to give lame excuses for not being supportive of Hamilton. (Fred Vasseur seized that moment in Singapore . . .) He failed to get the engineers to listen to Hamilton's input until it was too late. He just wasn't supportive enough when 2021 saw Hamilton blatantly robbed of a championship that he had clearly already won, etc., etc. Sir Lewis Hamilton has pretty much won won 8 years of F1 championships for Mercedes and is in effect a seriously important global brand and it's Mercedes loss . . .
Good for Lewis! He has nothing left to prove and win lose or draw all his accomplishments to date are monumental. If the man wants to race in a Ferrari, and be honest who wouldn’t, then go do what 99.99999% of the rest of us will never get a chance to do. Oh and by the way, Ferrari is FAST right now! And Lewis’s race craft is far superior to any other Ferrari driver in quite some time. I see him winning sooner than later.
Agree partly. He's not got nothing to prove though. After losing the fastest car, he is one-all with his team mate over two seasons. If Leclerc beats him over the season next year, it won't look that impressive. That said, I don't like the guy but he has the ability to beat Charles. Max has shown that Charles doesn't really drive well when being pressed and can make disastrous mistakes . Hamilton should be well capable of pressuring Leclerc. Be interesting to see if he can stand it. If the car is fast , I expect Hamilton to be fast.
Who finished second in constructor championship table last year ? 😂 Mercedes was also saving money everywhere they could ….but they were improving a lot…Ferrari went all the way around…in fact with Lewis on board they will now spend even more money on his salary …🤭😂 Lewis should have stay with team who worked hard all those years, who literally gave him all those titles but he chose to be deserter…we all know how The World is reacting to that
Nothing to prove? If he goes to ferrari and slacks 1-2 or seasons it'll forever taint his legacy for a lot of people. Just how Max's first (deserved) title got tainted, and people will always pull out the nonsense, the same will happen to Lewis by certain fans if he doesn't perform. Those specific fans will always say "see, unless he's driving the best car, the merc he can't win" Or they'll mention how he can't win without being clear number one driver (altho vs russell he wasn't clear no.1 either)
@@---kn2go Don't understand why Ferrari would even bother... They would of had to offer so much money & bring him on board when the team is struggling and in the puff of smoke he will be gone...No more titles, maybe no more wins & they wasted a seat for him instead of bringing in a good young driver who is more likely to produce & stay with the team for a long time... For Lewis it IS all about the money...I hope he stuffs up & everyone will remember him as going out a loser....
He has no pressure. Having Lewis as your teammate is great. Everything to gain & nothing to lose. Lewis won't get any new upgrades/or info first this year so Russell might beat him too
Alonso...Vettel...Leclerc... None could get the job done, not even reheated last champ Kimi. Now The Ham Man will bring home the bacon for the Scuderia and top Schumachers 7 with an 8th championship at his 3rd team. Entra lì Luigi!!
So weird how even though official records exist online, people think hamilton is still a contender going to a lower team when he finished the last 3/4's of the season out of the top 10 and got beaten easily by both Lance stroll and even yuki tsunoda for the last 4 races with a stronger team.
So the other 100 plus wins count for nothing, last 4 races, if we thought that of schumacher, vettel, Mansel, senna, raikanan, alsonso, nobody would beat rosberg by how you see things, time to look at yourself and the hate you have for sportsmanship, might as well right off max on his 2019 result ohhh wait look he has won 2021,22 and 23 what a idiotic way of comapring performance, considering lewis finished third in the wdc.
I think after his decision to move to Mercedes from Mclaren and we all thought on why do that but it was the right decision and this makes sense for 2025 hopefully he wins a title and can retire at Ferrari.
He won't. If Ferrari get it right and deliver a championship winning car, the driver who will win the driver's title at Ferrari will be Charles, not Lewis.
This is a multi cultural world. I would love Lewis to speak a foreign language. Why not. I think i cant skip any race in the 24 calender leading into 25.
@@rahulseeruttun5539 your'e quite right. But numbers dont lie, max won both titles on his own last year, in the most successful f1 car ever. The RB20 will have to be a real bag of bolts to change that.

Jeez, it’s not complicated. John Elkann released the news on the same day as Ferraris quarterly earnings call. Nothing to do with FOM/Liberty or anyone else just a way to push Ferrari stock which did rise over 12%.

If this is true then I am ready for him winning his 8th and become the undistributed Greatest lol. As a general F1 fan myself since Vettel retired. We really need a Ferrari champion again.
This could be a wise move on Lewis' part. He will be able to compete with what will likely be the best iteration of the Mercedes this year (not likely to reach further development next year given the formula change). He then moves to Ferrari for 2025 and cements himself with the Tifosi. Then in 2026 with the new engine formula, he is installed on one of the two teams that develop the best engines (Mercedes and Ferrari), with Red Bull being on the outside with newbie Ford. And at the same time, he eliminates the option for Max to leave RB for Ferrari.
To be honest, no one expected him to win a WC at Merc. His move was seen as a suicide move at the time and you can still find Tweets of 2012, saying he just ended his career and that he would fail.
Lewis Hamilton is back at it with his surprising decisions. I absolutely love this for him and the sport which has been feeling mundane for a while now. Hamilton and Leclerc as a driver is going to be too hot.
would be nice. i was thinkig a few days ago that he has that killer look, something that other drivers don't have. leclerc and ham are struggling with ptsd, sainz, perez, alonso, russell good drivers but no chance honestly. lando too soft, proper stoner in different clothes might say. so piastri might be our only chance to interfere with mv's title winning spree. (scenario available after new regs) all the best !
@@stefandobre226 You said it perfectly. "that killer look". I totally agree, that's been my feeling for bout 6 months now. He has that ruthless look about him. And his ability last season for a "rookie" was insanely good. I reckon he's got atleast a couple of Drivers Championships coming in the next 5/10 years I think.
Maybe it's better not to get behind a bunch of "initiatives". If I was him, I'd focus on driving and performance. Also, I'm glad Ferrari don't get into all that. Ferrari make fast cars. Passionately. That's the only initiative that should concern them. I also don't agree with the statement of "F1 is a platform for (insert agenda here)". F1 should be a sport first, business second and at no point whatsoever should it profess to lecture people on their moral choices or politics. That doesn't mean Lewis can't stand for what he believes is right or important to him. It also doesn't mean his friends and colleagues can't stand with him, just don't use the sport as a bench to preach from. He's his own platform. He doesn't need another.
Seb coming back at Mercedes in a German team a German driver love to see that happen his hero drove for Mercedes when he was at Red Bull. Of course he wanted to win at Ferrari and gutted he didn't but he could be ready to comeback fight for a 5th title in silver arrows. Who knows Alonso came back why not Seb?
Lewis should yacht off into the sunset, his time has been over for a few years. I'm not sure why Ferrari hired him, unless they needed a fashion designer for the scuderia's new uniform. His focus has been on everything BUT his job for the last few years. If he cannot be bothered to show up at preseason testing to help develop the Mercedes, why does Ferrari think he'll be any different there? Mercedes is paying both Lewis and Mick Schumacher, maybe they should let lewis hang out in the garage and let Mick get some experience. I gotta think the German fans would prefer Mick and the team would prefer not to deal with a spoiled child that is incapable of carrying his own helmet or scooter!
As I’ve said many times during 2023 I think Ferrari have been desperate to get Hamilton to resurrect their fortunes. He’ll probably drive for maybe a season or two but once he has learnt the Ferrari culture he may be in a better position to become their Manager..
Lewis and his managements ability to switch at the perfect moment shouldn’t be forgotten, this is exactly the reaction when he left McLaren, but can he beat charles hmmm very interesting
can he beat Charles??? what a stupid question. a driver of Lewis ability and pedigree is not looking to beat charles but to beat Max and win championships.
For real. I remember those conversations. McLaren have done so much, Can he beat nico, Will the team be excepting of his “antics”… then he got 6 titles with them and 7 team titles with nico & bottas. Not bad too be honest. When him and Charles are comfortable in their cars they can pull out a quick lap. Same with Max. All great drivers imho
i agree on pace Charles is quicker than Russell but is pace the only guarantee of winning a race?? clearly you just started following F1 recently. Lewis has proven to be a far more capable and complete driver than Charles. and this is not me discounting Charles, this is me telling you to go back and watch all of your F1 devoid of your filthy bias and convince yourself who the better driver is@@husseinomar1981
If there’s anyone who can build a championship winning car, it’s Lewis. Problem is that this will most likely take multiple years, especially with a team like Ferrari. Once the car can challenge for the title, Lewis will already be 40+ and he won’t beat Max or Charles at that age
What? He piggybacked on the car that was buildt with the help of Schumacher just before the regs changed. Even then the drivers build nothing. The designers and mechanics do.
He will be the no. 2 driver at Ferrari who will be tasked to get decent points while earning good money (which is why he abandoned Mercedes who’re way smarter than Ferrari).
The better questions is where he has the higher odds. And in the end would you rather try or not try at Ferrari. Seems like he's bored at Merc & needs them motivaton/challenge
More likely, Hamilton will do a Kimi Raikkonen. Goes to Ferrari, support the team and retire on a high note. He could even have an excursion back to Mclaren before retirement (like Kimi back to Sauber).
An 8th title at a historic team like Ferrari would be the icing on the cake. I think he could probably retire from F1 happy with that. He'd hold the record for most championships and who knows when that record would be broken, Reb Bull won't be dominant forever (I hope).
I can see why he'd do this. Even if it is just a season. He probably is aware that Verstappen is the best driver on the grid now , in the best car under these regs , most likely. Barring a Red Bull disaster he's going to be very very hard to beat. So why not go and have a season or two as a swansong at the biggest draw in F1.
I think he knows he gets one year in the Mercedes if it's good and one year in a 2025 Ferrari which will be much the same as the 2024 Ferrari. After that, it's upheaval time at which stage he might retire. He's essentially trying to get the Championship in two different cars.
I'm pretty sure you know already, but yes Ferrari and Merc had officially confirmed it. I haven't looked at any Lewis media so I don't know about that, but it is official.
I'm huge Ferrari fan since 1997 but let's be honest, with current Ferrari he will struggle a lot as many great drivers before him, at least he'll get a chance to finish his awesome career driving for one of the greatest teams ever.

And at the same time, he eliminates the option for Max to leave RB for Ferrari.
A perfect scenario for an 8th title and then retirement...
Class act
9th
To be honest, no one expected him to win a WC at Merc. His move was seen as a suicide move at the time and you can still find Tweets of 2012, saying he just ended his career and that he would fail.
Lewis Hamilton is back at it with his surprising decisions. I absolutely love this for him and the sport which has been feeling mundane for a while now. Hamilton and Leclerc as a driver is going to be too hot.
He is already a 8 Time champion... Let's talk about his 9th title !
Piastri going to Mercedes.
Mark my words.
would be nice. i was thinkig a few days ago that he has that killer look, something that other drivers don't have. leclerc and ham are struggling with ptsd, sainz, perez, alonso, russell good drivers but no chance honestly. lando too soft, proper stoner in different clothes might say. so piastri might be our only chance to interfere with mv's title winning spree. (scenario available after new regs)
all the best !
@@stefandobre226 You said it perfectly.
"that killer look".
I totally agree, that's been my feeling for bout 6 months now.
He has that ruthless look about him.
And his ability last season for a "rookie" was insanely good.
I reckon he's got atleast a couple of Drivers Championships coming in the next 5/10 years I think.
Maybe it's better not to get behind a bunch of "initiatives". If I was him, I'd focus on driving and performance.
Also, I'm glad Ferrari don't get into all that. Ferrari make fast cars. Passionately. That's the only initiative that should concern them. I also don't agree with the statement of "F1 is a platform for (insert agenda here)".
F1 should be a sport first, business second and at no point whatsoever should it profess to lecture people on their moral choices or politics.
That doesn't mean Lewis can't stand for what he believes is right or important to him. It also doesn't mean his friends and colleagues can't stand with him, just don't use the sport as a bench to preach from. He's his own platform. He doesn't need another.
Seb coming back at Mercedes in a German team a German driver love to see that happen his hero drove for Mercedes when he was at Red Bull. Of course he wanted to win at Ferrari and gutted he didn't but he could be ready to comeback fight for a 5th title in silver arrows. Who knows Alonso came back why not Seb?
Seb is gone man. Just let it go.
@@ChuyR. Agreed.
Lewis more conscious about his dress code, than racing.
Where is the proof?
Lewis should yacht off into the sunset, his time has been over for a few years. I'm not sure why Ferrari hired him, unless they needed a fashion designer for the scuderia's new uniform. His focus has been on everything BUT his job for the last few years. If he cannot be bothered to show up at preseason testing to help develop the Mercedes, why does Ferrari think he'll be any different there? Mercedes is paying both Lewis and Mick Schumacher, maybe they should let lewis hang out in the garage and let Mick get some experience. I gotta think the German fans would prefer Mick and the team would prefer not to deal with a spoiled child that is incapable of carrying his own helmet or scooter!
If anyone else went to Ferrari I’d say, why, but Lewis with his 7 championships can do things his way.
Lewis: "adult in the room"? He is a ridiculous role model.
OPENS The Door For Vettel to get into Mercedes
Bring back Vettel to drive in the Mercedes 2025 ❤
Vettel should learn how to drive and finish 2020 Germany GP first.
Shut up, you mug.
He always seeks the fastest car/team because he is a boring defensive driver that whines if he can’t start a race in the front.
O oh, HAM is moving and the whole Sky Sports F1 staff woke up
Sir Hamilton is like Lionel Messi and Djokovic, the goats of their respective sports.
The video is a bit long for a simple "no"
Sorry, did Craig seriously ask Karun if one of the reasons to move to Ferrari was to woke the place up like he did with Merc? 😂
He did.
As I’ve said many times during 2023 I think Ferrari have been desperate to get Hamilton to resurrect their fortunes. He’ll probably drive for maybe a season or two but once he has learnt the Ferrari culture he may be in a better position to become their Manager..
Lewis and his managements ability to switch at the perfect moment shouldn’t be forgotten, this is exactly the reaction when he left McLaren, but can he beat charles hmmm very interesting
can he beat Charles???
what a stupid question.
a driver of Lewis ability and pedigree is not looking to beat charles but to beat Max and win championships.
@@jkbzz charles is significantly quicker then Russell u muppet
For real. I remember those conversations. McLaren have done so much, Can he beat nico, Will the team be excepting of his “antics”… then he got 6 titles with them and 7 team titles with nico & bottas. Not bad too be honest. When him and Charles are comfortable in their cars they can pull out a quick lap. Same with Max. All great drivers imho
@@jayjonesss agree but when the spot light is off Charles we all know what he did to vettel, that boy is the fastest in F1 on 1 lap pace
i agree on pace Charles is quicker than Russell but is pace the only guarantee of winning a race??
clearly you just started following F1 recently.
Lewis has proven to be a far more capable and complete driver than Charles. and this is not me discounting Charles, this is me telling you to go back and watch all of your F1 devoid of your filthy bias and convince yourself who the better driver is@@husseinomar1981
Lewis better win the f1 championship this or next year.
Yes if Max retires ! 😂
Max did say he doesn't want to break the record. Probably be satisfied with five tbh
Sooo funny 🤣
What's the deal the formal standing around like that? It makes me feel uncomfortable.
Why is this guy Ted still on tv? This guy is crazy and anything but objective. Can't take that clown seriously can we 😂
hope we will hear another bombshell news mid 2024 season about Vettel returning to F1 with Mercedes
Drive to survive got something interesting out of a boring season 😂
Ok bott
If there’s anyone who can build a championship winning car, it’s Lewis. Problem is that this will most likely take multiple years, especially with a team like Ferrari. Once the car can challenge for the title, Lewis will already be 40+ and he won’t beat Max or Charles at that age
What? He piggybacked on the car that was buildt with the help of Schumacher just before the regs changed. Even then the drivers build nothing. The designers and mechanics do.
There is a big elephant in the room with all of the hope/cope and it's name is Max.
Yes i truly hope so an amazing achievement that Lewis has achieved
He will be the no. 2 driver at Ferrari who will be tasked to get decent points while earning good money (which is why he abandoned Mercedes who’re way smarter than Ferrari).
Hahaha Hahaha Hahaha Hahaha Hahaha Hahaha Hahaha Hahaha
You are a clown 🤡
Ofcourse not. But on the other hand is Ferrari wining again!😂
Long story short, no.
The better questions is where he has the higher odds. And in the end would you rather try or not try at Ferrari. Seems like he's bored at Merc & needs them motivaton/challenge
What's with the cafeteria noise?
It's in Sir. Lewis Hamilton's nature to test all possible boundaries.
Nope.....Charles will crush him into retirement
Plot twist, it’s not official and doesn’t happen 😵💫🤣
More likely, Hamilton will do a Kimi Raikkonen. Goes to Ferrari, support the team and retire on a high note. He could even have an excursion back to Mclaren before retirement (like Kimi back to Sauber).
An 8th title at a historic team like Ferrari would be the icing on the cake. I think he could probably retire from F1 happy with that. He'd hold the record for most championships and who knows when that record would be broken, Reb Bull won't be dominant forever (I hope).
I can see why he'd do this. Even if it is just a season. He probably is aware that Verstappen is the best driver on the grid now , in the best car under these regs , most likely. Barring a Red Bull disaster he's going to be very very hard to beat. So why not go and have a season or two as a swansong at the biggest draw in F1.
The question was never, "Will the car be good?" but "Will their terrible strategy screw him over?"...
Max is gonna dominate for years to come so stop yapping about lol , Max will probably win his 7th or 8th before lewis wins his 8th
I think he knows he gets one year in the Mercedes if it's good and one year in a 2025 Ferrari which will be much the same as the 2024 Ferrari. After that, it's upheaval time at which stage he might retire. He's essentially trying to get the Championship in two different cars.
Lewis finally gets the chance to achieve his dream of becoming the black Alboreto.
Max is laughing his head off.
If my theory is right he’s seen something in Ferraris f1 development somewhere where they got a advantage next year
Maybe, let’s hope the rules are not changed at the last minute to prevent it this time!
Well that last sentence says it all
Has this been officially confirmed by Merc, Ferrari or Hamilton?
I'm pretty sure you know already, but yes Ferrari and Merc had officially confirmed it. I haven't looked at any Lewis media so I don't know about that, but it is official.
Max to Mercedes in 2026 .should be a fantastic transfer. The best car driver and the best car builder.🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
I'm huge Ferrari fan since 1997 but let's be honest, with current Ferrari he will struggle a lot as many great drivers before him, at least he'll get a chance to finish his awesome career driving for one of the greatest teams ever.
