Lewis Hamilton and Ferrari are the perfect combination for every Formula 1 fan. The seven-time world champion he will drive the Maranello car from next seasonbut there was a remote possibility of seeing him on track in Red before 2025. An opportunity that, obviously, it’s faded as explained by BBC journalist Andrew Benson.
F1 Abu Dhabi 2024 test, Lewis Hamilton will not drive the Ferrari SF-24
Seeing Lewis Hamilton drive a Ferrari F1 before the 2025 season will not be possible. There was a little hope in seeing the Stevenage native pilot dressed in red ahead of time thanks to the tests that will take place in Abu Dhabi after the usual GP of the Formula 1 World Championship.
The BBC journalist reported this news which disappointed the fans of the English driver and the Prancing Horse Andrew Benson. The well-known pen of the English broadcaster explained how this scenario is impossible, as the current Mercedes driver he is linked to the Brackley team with a contract that will only expire at the end of 2024. Furthermore, Benson reminds us that Lewis Carl Davidson Hamilton will be involved in various promotional events that will see him as a protagonist until the end of his experience with the German brand.
“Zero – Benson reported when speaking about the possibility of seeing Hamilton in the Abu Dhabi tests, responding to a Q&A on the BBC website – Hamilton is under contract with Mercedes until the end of the year and they told him that he cannot test for Ferrari at the end of the season because they have a lot of promotional and farewell work to do after 12 years together and 18 with Mercedes engines. If Hamilton had been allowed to drive for Ferrari for the first time, it would have been a memorable occasion“.
In short, to see Lewis Hamilton officially dressed in red and driving a Ferrari Formula 1 single-seater we will have to wait until February 26tha date which marks the start of the pre-season tests which will take place at the Sakhir Circuit, in Bahrain.
