    Ferrari is too much of an Allure for any driver to resist, so it's understandable that Lewis decided to end his F1 career with Ferrari. It's a devastating loss for Mercedes. To understand Lewis' decision one could argue that 2024 Mercedes is not to Lewis liking of which he's been persisting Mercedes to make certain changes. So, it could be about Engineers v/s The Driver decision.

The only thing is that if I was in Lewis's shoes Ferrari have not won anything for a long time . Even Fernando and Seb vettle couldn't turn things around for the team or themselves so I'm not convinced Lewis will get that 8th title with Ferrari assuming he don't get it this year.

      "Seb drove the fastest car into the wall in Hockenheim"
      As it was raining. And he was pushing to make up for the team leaving him behind Raikkonen on old tyres earlier even though that would ruin the strategy. I'm sure Vettel would have loved the Ferrari Alonso had, even the bad ones compared to the hybrid crap. Vettel made some mistakes, as did Hamilton in 2018. Ferrari also let him down by not listening to him, and their development fell apart mid season, while Merc made big gains once they understood rear tyre wear after Spa. And I'm paraphrasing Mark Hughes, respected journalist, who made the point of how difficult Ferrari made life for Vettel.
      The relative performance of cars isn't static circuit to circuit. They all have different strengths and weaknesses as drivers do. The rumor is that Ferrari had to turn down their ERS in 2018 after Lauda got the FIA t investigate them.

    I see this a little differently. I think for Lewis, he now probably has a rough idea of when he'll retire. I think this is partly a bucket list move and partly something Ferrari have been able to demonstrate for '26. Then, there's the chance to try to build the team around you when it comes to development, tactics and that whole leadership type thing a champion enjoys taking on.
    Plus, at Ferrari, there's always a number one driver, and I think, he believes he can take on Charles head to head and come out on top, thereby taking that lead role.
    Max has that at RB. I wonder if Hamilton thinks that's required to beat him. You know, Mercedes ignored him with the wheelbase Vs cockpit position thing with the zero pod concept. It could be as simple as Ferrari saying : A. We have a good PU for 26, and B: we'll do whatever it is to give you what you need on chassis side.
    At worst, he ticks off his bucket list before retiring. He's not afraid to go to a team that needs a bit of work either it seems. He better learn good Italian quick though. 😂

      They didnt have Fred as principal. And the Scuderia is public ownership, Ferrari are like the English national football team, anything they do the politicians and basically all of Italy are involved.

    I am utterly gutted that Sainz will not be racing in a Ferrari from 2025. I hope he wins the championship with them this year, and gets a really good and competitive car for 2025 onwards.

    You can tell Lewis is the last of the oldskool drivers, he knows F1 history (Like Vettel) and you cannot be called the Goat until you drive Ferrari and come out with a WDC.
    The new school drivers dont care a jot. At their peril.
    I hope Scuderia listen to Lewis just like they listened to Michael, but going back to the start of F1 so many great WDC have fallen by the wayside when they join Ferrari.
    At least it wont be a borefest in 2025, I wish it was this year that Lewis goes to Ferrari.

    It's gonna be funny watching Sky Sports Mercedes F1 now gradually shifting their obsession with Mercedes to Ferrari just because Lewis is gonna be driving for them. Their whole coverage just functions as a Lewis Hamilton cheerleading cast.
