A few months ago, Christian Horner hinted to us that Hamilton would join Ferrari, and here we are. Hamilton will race for the Ferrari F1 team in the 2025 season, and Charles Leclerc will partner him. Looking at his exit from the team, Toto Wolff has his say.
Mercedes Team Principal Toto Wolff said:
“Lewis will always be an important part of Mercedes motorsport history.”
He also mentioned:
“We knew our partnership would come to a natural end at some point. We accept Lewis’s decision to seek a fresh challenge.”
Lewis Hamilton’s contribution to the Mercedes F1 team has been incredible. He led the team to win multiple championships, and his journey with Mercedes will be remembered for ages.
As mentioned, Christian Horner hinted to us about Lewis Hamilton joining Ferrari. Here is what Horner said:
“Around the 2024 Monaco Grand Prix, Hamilton had conservations with John Elkann (Ferrari Chairman).”

Hamilton joining Ferrari in 2025 means Carlos Sainz will have to find a new seat in the upcoming season. Will Sainz replace Lewis Hamilton’s seat at Mercedes, or will he partner his former teammate Max Verstappen in the Red Bull? Be ready, F1 fans; a complete cinema masterpiece is on the table throughout the season.
