Holder of a Master's degree in sports journalism, I fell in love with tennis since childhood and have always loved reading the great stories of this sport. Today, I want to tell them about them, take full advantage of my passion and be as close as possible to the aces of the circuit.
It's a new year starting, and Lewis Hamilton has officially become a Ferrari driver. The Briton will wear the colors of the Italian team when the season resumes next March. On the eve of celebrating his 40th birthday, he proved that he was still capable of competing with the best and establishing himself. But Ferrari may have made a mistake betting on him at his age.
After 12 seasons spent with Mercedes, Lewis Hamilton ended his adventure with the German team, where he enjoyed enormous success. The British driver will continue his career with Ferrari, hoping to continue his quest for victory. For Felipe Massabetting on a 40-year-old driver is a daring bet, even if Hamilton is not made of the same wood as everyone else.
Hamilton has immense talent
Since the start of his career, Lewis Hamilton had the time to mark the history of the Formula 1 forever. Seven times world champion, the British driver will try to continue writing a few pages at Ferrari. “If you asked me if I would hire Hamilton, at the head of Ferrari, as a driver, yes, I would, without a doubt. Because of his talent. He is one of the most incredible drivers in F1 “, first underlines the former Brazilian pilot, in comments reported by Nextgen-Auto.
Is Hamilton too old?
Confident at Mercedes, Lewis Hamilton was able to exploit his talent wonderfully thanks to the technical progress of the German team. At 40, he started from scratch at Ferrari, and it may be difficult for him to adapt so quickly. “Because of his age, maybe not. If you look at sports, age matters. And we need to understand to what extent age weighs on him in this situation or not. I'm talking about myself, these days I need to train a lot more physically than before. It is much more difficult to recover physically after a tough race or intense workout,” concludes Felipe Massa.
