Hamilton’s Move to Ferrari: A Catalyst for Championship Success?
Oliver Bearman, set to race for Haas F1 in 2025, believes Lewis Hamilton will infuse Ferrari with a "champion's mindset" upon his arrival in the following year.
In a surprising turn of events earlier this year, Hamilton is set to team up with Charles Leclerc at Ferrari starting in 2025, a development that has stunned
This marks the conclusion of Hamilton's extended partnership with Mercedes, a connection that dates back to his F1 debut with McLaren in 2007.
Ferrari has not won a championship since the year Kimi Raikkonen secured the title, which coincides with Lewis Hamilton's rookie year in Formula 1.
Since that time, Scuderia Ferrari has experienced several close calls with both Fernando Alonso and Sebastian Vettel.
In recent times, Ferrari has faced challenges in equipping Leclerc with a vehicle capable of securing a championship title throughout an entire season.
Bearman, a member of Ferrari's driving school, is convinced that Hamilton will make a significant difference at Maranello.
"Bearman mentioned to Sky Sports at Silverstone that he believes he will contribute a significant amount of expertise to the squad."
"He has secured seven world titles, a feat few can claim. His addition to the team will undoubtedly infuse it with a strong, victory-focused mindset, while his undeniable skill sets him apart as among the greatest to ever compete in the sport."
"Bearman expressed his enthusiasm, noting, 'I'm really pleased he's able to impart some of his knowledge to me, even if just a bit.' He added, 'I'm looking forward to gaining insights from him and I believe Ferrari will benefit greatly too, as he's likely to be a valuable addition to our team.'"
Bearman is set to embark on his first full-season journey in Formula 1 with Haas in the coming year.
The UK racer made a significant impact during his single race with Ferrari in Saudi Arabia, filling in for Carlos Sainz.
Bearman aspires to clinch global titles with Ferrari in the forthcoming years.
Bearman expressed that Ferrari stands as a globally recognized emblem, particularly in the realms of racing and Formula 1. He suggested that when people imagine a car, it's often depicted in red, highlighting Ferrari's strong association with racing excellence, triumphs, and celebrated drivers.
"First and foremost, making my first appearance for Ferrari was an event that hasn't occurred in quite some time. Additionally, becoming the youngest driver to represent Ferrari was an incredibly unique milestone for me."
"Winning world championships is my ultimate goal, and achieving this with Ferrari is what I dream of. They have been backing me since 2021, recognizing my potential early. They chose to believe in my abilities, and letting me race in Jeddah was a significant gamble on their part.
"This indicates their confidence in me, their faith in my skills, and naturally, my aspiration is to clinch a championship title, particularly with Ferrari."
