Seven-time Formula 1 World Champion Lewis Hamilton has put speculation to rest by reaffirming his commitment to Mercedes. Amid widespread rumors of a potential move to Ferrari in 2025, Hamilton has extended his contract with the Brackley-based team, cementing his position as one of the sport’s longest-standing partnerships.
In an exclusive video statement, Hamilton addressed the swirling speculation, saying, *”Mercedes has been my family for over a decade, and our journey together is far from over. While I’m flattered by the rumors linking me to Ferrari, my focus remains on winning more championships with Mercedes.”*
Hamilton’s loyalty to Mercedes has yielded extraordinary success, including 82 race wins and six of his seven world titles. With a fresh deal in place, the British driver is set to spearhead the team’s 2024 and 2025 campaigns, working closely with Team Principal Toto Wolff and his new teammate George Russell.
The announcement quashes months of speculation suggesting that Ferrari had made a lucrative offer to lure Hamilton away. Reports of tensions at Mercedes earlier in the year added fuel to the fire, but Hamilton’s latest decision underscores his faith in the team’s ability to regain their championship-winning form.
Mercedes CEO Toto Wolff expressed his excitement about the extension: *”Lewis is not only an exceptional driver but an integral part of our team’s DNA. Together, we’re committed to reclaiming the top step in Formula 1.”*
With the contract extension secured, fans are eager to see Hamilton’s next chapter with Mercedes as the team works to return to its dominant position in the sport.
