Lewis Hamilton delivered his first speech in Italian to Ferrari’s fans and team members, demonstrating his commitment to integrating into the team ahead of the 2025 season.

Lewis Hamilton showed off his Italian when he addressed staff at Ferrari’s F1 base. The seven-time world champion is continuing his adaptation to his new team after completing a blockbuster switch from Mercedes following 12 years with the Silver Arrows.

Lando Norris has admitted that he ‘would have done the same thing as Lewis Hamilton ’ had he been in the 40-year-old’s position last season. The seven-time world champion called time on his Mercedes career and joined direct rivals Ferrari in a blockbuster move.

Toto Wolff has said Lewis Hamilton’s Mercedes exit was “right for both of us” as the team principal looked ahead to the 2025 F1 season. After 12 years and six world titles together, Hamilton and Mercedes parted ways at the end of last season with the British driver sealing a blockbuster move to Ferrari for 2025 and beyond.

Ferrari team principal, Fred Vasseur, has been caught issuing orders to his new Formula 1 driver, Lewis Hamilton, in a social media release from the team. The seven-time world champion may be entering a fresh environment for the 2025 season, but there will be at least some familiarity between Hamilton and his new team boss.
