Lewis Hamilton will become Charles Leclerc’s new teammate next season. The unexpected news of Lewis’s move to Ferrari came just days following Charles extended his contract with the Italian team. At the presentation of the Ferrari SF-24, Leclerc confirmed that he already knew regarding Hamilton’s arrival at the Scuderia when he signed his contract.
“These kinds of contracts are not concluded overnight – it takes time, and I was aware of the negotiations even before I signed my contract, so the news did not come as a surprise to me,” Racingnews365 quotes Charles Leclerc as saying. Lewis is an incredible racer, the most successful in history. He has a lot of experience that he will share with the team and with me, which is good.
Carlos is also a great rider, with whom we have another season to spend, and together we will try to do our job as best as possible.
Lewis and I had already communicated following the transfer was officially announced. We corresponded with him.
It’s always interesting when you have a new partner because you can learn a different approach to work and flying from him. Moreover, my new partner is a seven-time world champion.”
