Update on Lewis Hamilton’s move to Ferrari for 2025
Formula 1 has announced an official change regarding Lewis Hamilton and Ferrari on their website, ahead of the 2025 season. The seven-time world champion became a Ferrari driver at the start of 2025, and both Hamilton and the team have shared this news on social networks to announce their collaboration.
Hamilton, who celebrated his 40th birthday in January, will begin his 19th season in F1, hoping to turn around recent disappointing seasons at Mercedes and return to winning ways with Ferrari. Not only does the Briton aspire to increase his impressive record of 105 victories, but he is also aiming for an eighth world title to establish himself as the greatest driver of all time.

Change in the driver line-up within Ferrari
Hamilton’s first Grand Prix with Ferrari is scheduled for late January, after team principal Fred Vasseur confirmed the champion will drive an older car in a private test at the Fiorano circuit.
At 40, he will be in tandem with Charles Leclerc this season. Although this duo is seen as balanced, it could create tensions if Ferrari manages to offer a car capable of winning the title. Leclerc’s ambition for his first title could complicate matters for Hamilton, particularly after his struggles in qualifying last year.

The official F1 website is enthusiastic about this new collaboration for 2025, reflecting the change in the profiles of drivers and teams. On the Teams page, Ferrari now displays Hamilton’s name alongside Leclerc’s, although an image of the champion in the red suit is yet to come.
At the same time, other driver transfers were also announced on the official F1 website and app, with a total of 50% driver changes compared to the 2024 season.
