Lewis Hamilton has broken his silence after being involved in crash during his second test session with Ferrari. The seven-time F1 world champion left Mercedes at the end of the 2024 season after activating an exit clause in his contract and signing a lucrative deal with Ferrari, said to be worth £40 million per year.

Ferrari have confirmed that their 2025 F1 car will be called the SF-25, in line with their last two Scuderia challengers. Lewis Hamilton will debut in scarlet red this year and is set to drive the SF-25 for the first time at the official three-day pre-season test in Bahrain from 26-28 February.

A key Ferrari figure has revealed that Lewis Hamilton often signalled his desire to join the team throughout his Mercedes F1 career.
