168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lewis Hamilton has put himself “back into the game” with his move to Ferrari, the company’s CEO Benedetto Vigna has warned F1 rivals.

The seven-time world champion has completed F1’s biggest-ever driver move by swapping Mercedes for Ferrari, where he will link up with 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Charles Leclerc for the upcoming 2025 season.

Hamilton is set to make his first appearance at Maranello today 🏅where he will conduct a simulator session and meet staff, ahead of his Ferrari on-track debut later this week.

The blockbuster transfer has set tongues wagging in the F1 paddock and Vigna confirmed the same antic🔯ipation and excitement is being felt at Ferrari.

“There is excitement, there is a great desire to start, to face the tests,” 💦Vigna is quoted as saying by Italian𝓀 publication .

“Change is always𓄧 important and Hamilton has put himself back into the game.

“I loved reading his post on Linkedin at the start of the year, a powerful message not to give up hope in all areas. With him and Charles we will have fuꦡn.

“A guy who has won seven titles can transfer so much. If I talk to Fred [Va🍒sseur, Ferrari✱ boss] he emphasises his ability to give technical guidance, but not only that.

“He has a great desire for ch🍌ang𓄧e, he’s not afraid.

“At the age of 40🍌 he has put himself back into the game. He has embraced 🌸a different culture in many ways, compared to the Anglo-Saxon one.

“To me that post on Linkedin reminded me of when Indro Monta🔯nelli [Italian journalist who founded the La Voce newspaper aged 85 following a disagreement with Silvio Berlusconi in 1994] decided change at the age of 80. I found it beautiful.”

Hamilton will give Ferrari ‘new push’

Hamilton joins Ferrari hopi🌟ng to end the Scuderia’s long title drought stretching ba🗹ck to 2008 for the constructors’ championship and 2007 for a drivers’ world title.

The 40-year-old Briton is seeking a re𓄧cord-breaking eighth drivers’ crown, which would pull h🌃im one clear of Ferrari legend Michael Schumacher.

Vigna believes Hamilton’s arrival at Ferrari wﷺill give the team fresh motivation, after narrowly missing out on the constructors’ t🅰itle to McLaren last term.

“Last year at the las💞t race in Abu Dhabi I personally thanked the whole team, from 💮Fred Vasseur to the mechanics: I am proud of the work done,” he said.

“No🍷w there is a good atmosphere. It’s clear that it must always be maintained, that’s the beauty of the Ferrari spirit: it always pushes you to go further.

“It will give us a new push. 💮Lewis will learn things from ♉us and we will learn things from him. It’s like dancing, the important thing is not to lose the pace.”

Hamilton will make his Ferrari race debut on 16 March at the season-opening Austral🅷ian Grand Prix in Melbouꦿrne.
