Lewis Hamilton is excited to start the 2025 F1 season with Ferrari and has encouraged others to think about their next steps. He decided to leave Mercedes after being with them for 11 years and is now looking forward to stopping Max Verstappen from winning his fifth title in a row. The seven-time world champion will team up with Charles Leclerc to form a strong driving duo. He is taking the place of Carlos Sainz, who moved from Ferrari to Williams during the off-season. Hamilton will start his journey with Ferrari at the first race of the season in Melbourne on March 15th.
