#F1 | Lewis Hamilton on taking a leap of faith to drive for Ferrari:

“Ultimately, every new opportunity is a total leap of faith. None of us can predict the future so changing jobs, or in my case teams, is always going to come with some level of risk. But I believe there's more of a risk in staying somewhere you're comfortable and in getting complacent.”

“Call it instinct or a gut feeling, but I knew that signing with Ferrari was the right move for me and that it would give me the challenge I needed.”

“There are so many incredible people in the team that I can't wait to work with, and I have total faith that we'll achieve great things together.”

#F1 | Formula 1 drivers risk points deductions and bans for 'misconduct' breaches under the new guidelines issued by the FIA. 🚨

Multipliers are to be applied to the base fine depending on the competition level - with a specific tier reserved for F1, where base fines should be multiplied by four.

Therefore, “causing moral injury or loss to the FIA” as an F1 driver is now supposed to carry a penalty of €40,000 on first offence, €80,000 on second offence (plus a suspended one-month suspension) and €120,000 on third offence (plus an actual one-month suspension and a deduction of an unspecified amount of championship points).

#F1 | Lewis Hamilton on his first test with Ferrari: “This morning was one of the best moments of my life. When I started the car and left the garage, I had the biggest smile on my face. It reminded me of the very first time I tested a Formula 1 car, such an exciting and special moment.”

“Today, almost twenty years later, I felt those same emotions again.”

“I already knew, as an external observer, how passionate the great Ferrari family was, from each member of the team to the fans, but being able to experience all this firsthand as a Ferrari driver is truly extraordinary. Passion flows in everyone's veins, and it is impossible not to let yourself be carried away by it.”

“I am incredibly grateful for the affection I have felt from everyone here in Maranello this week. There's a lot of work to do, but I can't wait to get started.”

Since I started single-seater racing, I got interested in Formula 1 even more and it was clear to me that Lewis was the guy to beat and the reference for me, so I’ve always looked up to him as the GOAT.

#F1 | Fred Vasseur spoke about his talks with Hamilton last winter that led to him joining Ferrari.

“In 2023 we won more races than Mercedes so it was not difficult to convince him Ferrari would be a good project.”

“He had the project to drive for Ferrari in his mind for at least 22 or 23 years because we were discussing this in 2004. It was not too difficult.”

“Sometimes it is also a matter of coincidence or to align all the planets; that he is on the market, that Ferrari have a seat available and so on. The contact was an easy one. We started to discuss one year ago and it was not difficult to convince him.”

Fred Vasseur: “We are in the fourth year of this regulation and we know our previous project very well. For this reason, the 2025 car will be completely new.”

There will be important changes to the front, with the suspension that will become the pull-rod scheme, following the philosophy already used by Mclaren and Red Bull. Floor aerodynamic surfaces have also undergone a strong restyling.

#F1 | Fred Vasseur says Lewis Hamilton’s assimilation to their cars is not their biggest challenge.

“It is not easy but he is coming with his own experience. He is not the rookie of the year, I am not worried at all about this.”

“We know that we have a lot of procedure to assimilate during this couple of days but he is experienced enough to do it.”

“We have the advantage to have the simulator and he will be able to do a race simulation and a qualifying simulation in the simulator and to be fully prepared with the steering wheel and all the particularities of the car. But I am not worried about this and it is not the biggest challenge.”

“Jeddah '21, Brazil '21, he lashes out. Budapest this year, very first race, the car wasn't dominant, crashing into Lewis, slamming his team.”

“For me, those comments on Saturday night and Sunday were totally disrespectful and unnecessary, because what happens on track, we fight hard. It's part of racing.”

“What happens in the steward's room? You fight hard, but it's never personal. But you know, he's taking it too far now.”

“You can go beyond the line in making a slight misjudgement, but going out of your way to say you will purposefully crash into somebody and put them on their head is beyond the line.”

“Ultimately every bit of input that I put in now, along with George’s, for example, is contributing to the development forwards. But that’s the job, that’s what I’m paid for.”

“I’m not holding anything back from any class sessions.”

“At the end of the day, this is the team that I’ve been successful with for many, many years and I want the team to continue to have success. That’s just how I’m wired, that’s how I am. Maybe other people will do a different thing.”

“Where we tend to be weak, it is in the slow-speed corners, particularly the ones where you have got one corner following into another.”

“There is a lot of turning of the car, and that is a weakness that we need to work on. We did not expect this update kit to improve that.”

“All we expected was this to just lift the base performance of the car. In terms of what we have seen, we are confident it is doing what was expected.”

“The big focus in these remaining races for us is learning what we can. We are in a position in the championship where we cannot challenge in front of us.”

“Our focus has very much shifted to learning what we need to this year to apply to next year in order to get on top of those issues.”

“In Brazil, it was useful having that wet running because you want to get a read on the car in the wet (…) We are going to be looking at all the remaining tracks to assess performance and just confirm what we understand about this car and whether the changes we are hoping to make for next year are going to improve those areas.”

#F1 | Lewis Hamilton talks about the challenges he faced during his journey into Formula 1 and what fuelled him to start Mission 44:

“There were so many problems along the way, it was really challenging. – there were many people, even parents of other racing drivers, that said 'theres no way you're ever going to be a Formula 1 driver, there's no way you're going to be there because theres no other black people there.'”

“There was even teachers that told me ‘there's no way you're ever gonna succeed, you're never gonna achieve nothing’ and it was a very gruelling time. Schooling was the worst period of time for me.”

Lewis Hamilton now vouches, with Mission 44, to give young people the access to STEM and Motorsport spaces no matter what their background is.

#F1 | Toto Wolff: “There’s a reason why we only signed a one-plus-one-year contract [with Lewis Hamilton].”

“We’re in a sport where cognitive sharpness is extremely important, and I believe everyone has a shelf life. So I need to look at the next generation.”

“It’s the same in football. Managers like Sir Alex Ferguson or Pep Guardiola. They anticipated it in the performance of their top stars and brought in junior players that drove the team for the next years.”

#F1 | Toto Wolff said Lewis Hamilton leaving for Ferrari “helps [us] because it avoids the moment where we need to tell the sport’s most iconic driver that we want to stop.”

“I absolutely had it on my radar that Lewis would go. I just couldn’t understand why he’d change to another team before we knew if we were going to be competitive.”

“It also didn’t give me any time to react, I had to emergency call our partners, and I possibly missed out on negotiating with other drivers who had signed contracts a few weeks earlier like Charles Leclerc and Lando Norris.”

“[But] I like the situation.”

#F1 🚨 | GPDA release a statement regarding the FIA’s recent policies around using ‘bad language’ in the paddock and monetary fines!

“With regards to swearing, there is a difference between swearing intended to insult others and more casual swearing, such as you might use to describe bad weather, or indeed an inanimate object such as a Formula 1 car, or a driving situation.”

“We urge the FIA President to also consider his own tone and language when talking to our member drivers, or indeed about them, whether in a public forum or otherwise.”

“The GPDA has, on countless occasions, expressed its view that Driver monetary fines are not appropriate for our Sport. For the past 3 years, we have called upon the FIA President to share the details and strategy regarding how the FIA's financial fines are allocated and where the funds are spent.”

#F1 | Matt Whyman, author of new Mercedes book says Lewis Hamilton is “very human,” despite coming across as very focused.

“His team mean a great deal to him - all his engineers, Bono, all the team, they mean such a lot to him. Every year he takes them paintballing, just a pre-season bonding experience, and it was all set up to go so he had to go to the paintballing.”

“He said to me that he arrived and he saw them all waiting to go in. He said he could not get out of the car for 20 minutes. He was just so struck with, ‘What am I going to say to them after all of this time?’ He is very human. I do not think this was a robotic decision.”

“I know Lewis can come across as very focused and it is a focused decision, but he is a human being, he knows that it has repercussions and on a friendship level, that was the thing that he cared about most of all. Talking to his colleagues, I think everyone understands. It is Ferrari, and this is a guy who has done everything - that is the one thing he has not done.”

#F1 | Lewis Hamilton revealed in new 'Inside Mercedes F1: Life in the Fast Lane' book that the toughest task about his move to Ferrari was “telling his closest friends within the team, including race engineer 'Bono'.”

He told the author, Matt Whyman, “he knows when the end of his career will be. He has got this very clear plan ahead of him. He said it is really meaningful to him, the fact that he has won all these races with Mercedes and he has been on this journey. The one thing he had not done and he just thought, ‘I do not want to walk away and go, I wish I had done that'.”

🚨 | Andrew Shovlin confirms that Mercedes won’t be bringing any more upgrades this season:

“We are not bringing any more major upgrades to the car. It might be that we have some test items, some small bits of bodywork that we’re looking at but this will be very much in the context of learning for the future.”

The lateral and longitudinal forces exerted on the tyres around the this anticlockwise track are medium to low in intensity and well distributed across both axles.

The new track surface could see a lowering of lap times and, as a consequence, an increase of the stress to which the tyres are subjected.

#BrazilGP 🇧🇷 | Happy race week, family! 🥳 A big & emotional one for a lot of us, hopefully it’ll be just as exciting!

All 4.3km of the Interlagos track has been resurfaced, including the pit lane. Therefore, the track surface will be a completely unknown factor for drivers and teams this weekend.

Pirelli has chosen to bring a softer trio of compounds to Brazil than last year: the C3 Hard, C4 Medium and C5 soft.

On top of all that: it’s a Sprint weekend, so only one free practice session for teams to find the best set-up.

2013: Topped in Green

Lewis’ first nod to Brazil came at the Grand Prix in 2013, when he splashed some green over the top of his usual design for some true local flavour.

The added depiction of Christ the Redeemer on the rear of the lid was another strong indication of Lewis’ love for Brazil.

2016: Standing Out

A bold yellow design and his iconic panther logo and number 44 in light green, Lewis certainly shone brightest off the track as well as on it that weekend.

If you are going to win your first F1 race in Brazil, why not do it in a special edition helmet?

2022: Celebrating Citizenship

In a year when Lewis had been awarded honorary citizenship of the country of Brazil, it seemed only fitting that he would have his helmet decked in the yellow, green and blue of the country where he was so adored.
