Is a bombing coming in Formula 1? The relationship between Ferrari and Lewis Hamilton It would be close to becoming official. The Briton would become a teammate Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz he would lose his seat next winter despite the fact that he has one more year left on his contract.
‘La Gazzetta’ assures that this summer the agreement could be closed. An agreement that encrypt in 40 million pounds. An absolutely wild figure, significantly increasing his current salary at Mercedes.
“The Hamilton operation should end no later than summer”says the aforementioned outlet, which also refers to Leclerc’s feelings in this regard: “Charles has reacted very calmly to the rumors about the possible arrival of Hamilton.”
This maneuver would leave Sainz without a place and a “very greedy” seat in Mercedes along with George Russell. That could be the first option for the Spanish, although in the silver arrows they have always looked favorably on the figure of Lando Norris.
This weekend Formula 1 moves to Monaco and surely the pilots will answer questions about this matter, which has been a real bombshell for the competition. It is not anything for a seven-time world champion to change teams with an offer of such magnitude.
At the moment the protagonists have not spoken. Neither Hamilton nor Sainz, who would lose his seat now for 2024. Nor a Leclerc whose future would not change in Maranello. Although his first pilot status would be more in doubt than ever.
