![]() | Luke Di Montedzemolo: the signing of Lewis is not a marketing trick. Hamilton wants to end his career on a high note, becoming a champion with Ferrari24-01-2025 |
Luke Di Montedzemolo appreciated the season of Ferrari and the transition of Hamilton. Former President Ferrari spoke about how the season-2024 was formed for Skuderia and shared his emotions after the team failed to win the design of the designers, although Ferrari continued the struggle to the last race:
The season-2024 turned out to be unpredictable and it was pleasant to see how FerrariShe had so much the ending of the season. This gives us the courage to look into the future. And at the same time, such an ending of the season passed in a blow to the very heart (Montsemolo has in mind the defeat of Ferrari in the struggle for the Cup of the designers)-after all, I did not forget how our Fernando Alonso had to finish only the fourth at the final Grand Prix of Abu Daby2010 to win the title.
Di Montedzemolo spoke about the upcoming transition to Ferrari Lewis Hamilton, and about the last season of Max Ferstappen: | in recent years, Ferrari had no problems with pilots. Carlos Sains and Charles Lekler performed strongly. But Hamilton is a phenomenon. Like Fersstappen. The signing of Lewis is not a marketing trick. Hamilton wants to end his career on a high note, becoming a champion with Ferrari. And this can be extremely interesting - if Ferrari manages to reduce the lag behind the leaders and build a machine that will be fast on highways of any type.
As for Max, this season he did not always have the fastest car. Sometimes she was not even the second or third in speed. So yes, in the season-2024 he still had to raise his own bar of performances in order to successfully protect the champion title.
In addition, the Italian spoke about the controversial situations and the excessive severity of the stewards regarding riders:
Sometimes I wonder how the current leadership of Formula 1 and the FIA to the duel, similar to the one that was arranged by Vilnev and Arna (on GrandaUnder the 1979 France, Vilnev and Arn several times collided with each other in the struggle for second place). I think they would be imprisoned.
In my opinion, now people react too sharply to the clashes of the riders in the struggle and to the exits beyond the route. It is necessary to leave the riders the opportunity to express emotions, to show courage. Formula-1 racer should not follow each millimeter of the boundaries of the route. All this should be revised.
