Ferrari’s plan A is to bring Lewis Hamilton to Maranello. Uncontrolled rumours even give the deal as done with an announcement possible in the next few days
I don’t usually comment on rumors, but this one is more than a rumor. As far as I have been able to find out the chances of Lewis Hamilton wearing Ferrari red in 2025 are very high, in fact I don’t rule out that he is already signed. Lewis is under contract until the end of 2025, but with an exit option in 2024. The move has caught Mercedes on the wrong foot, while Carlos Sainz was expecting it. This year will be difficult for Carlos at Ferrari, but his options for 2025 are several: a year of waiting at Sauber until it becomes Audi in 2026 or even a possible negotiation with Mercedes to take Hamilton’s place.

Formu1a .uno:
The 2024 season not even started, and it’s about 2025. Will he race through the season knowing nothing matters, because he will leave anyway? It would be terrible for team morale, it sounds strange, fishy. Also Hamilton has a contract for 2025 with Merc.
Everything hints it’s fake.
