The seven-time world champion’s choice to leave Mercedes will be remembered as a key moment in final chapter of Formula One legacy
Lewis Hamilton’s highly unexpected switch to Ferrari has ensured that, on transfer deadline day, the biggest deal of all was done in Formula One not football. Never one to shy away from a challenge, the seven-time world champion is making his boldest ever move in the last roll of the dice in his career.
This is a breathtaking and exhilarating deal. In opting to leave Mercedes for Ferrari in 2025 Hamilton has made the most significant team switch of the century. Having signed a new deal with Mercedes in August of last year, and after years of repeatedly denying rumours of a move to Ferrari, the 39-year-old has declared his intent to finish his career with the most famous, most storied, and most successful team in F1 history.
Continue reading...Lewis Hamilton could be set to make a shock move to join Ferrari in 2025. The seven-time Formula One world champion is reportedly in the advanced stages of negotiation with the Scuderia but no deal has yet been signed.
The 39-year-old has been linked with a potential move to Ferrari in the past but has repeatedly insisted he would stay with current team Mercedes, suggesting he would see out his career with the team and then take on an ambassadorial role with them. However it is understood Mercedes team principal, Toto Wolff, and technical director James Allison are set to hold a meeting with staff at 2pm on Thursday.
Continue reading...Red Bull’s dominance has drained Formula One of excitement this year but there could still be a thrilling climax in Abu Dhabi
This season’s Formula One title fight may be long over but for Mercedes and Ferrari a battle for pride and no little prize money lends this weekend’s finale at Abu Dhabi a dramatic tension that had largely drained from the championship after Max Verstappen left the field in his wake.
Doubtless Red Bull’s Verstappen, who has already secured the drivers’ title , will canter away to another victory at the Yas Marina Circuit. There is no reason to suppose the dominance he has displayed all season should not close with his 19th win from 22 races, a record so strong it may never be broken.

Le mythique constructeur Ferrari vient de se tourner vers les cryptomonnaies. Contre des Bitcoins, le cheval cabré vend sa crinière.
Max Verstappen claimed pole position at the Japanese Grand Prix for Red Bull with a mighty lap of Suzuka. With two superb runs on the figure-of-eight circuit Verstappen beat the McLaren of Oscar Piastri into second place, an equally impressive showing for the rookie who takes his first front row GP start on Sunday. Piastri’s teammate Lando Norris was third. Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc was in fourth, with Red Bull’s Sergio Pérez in fifth. Lewis Hamilton and George Russell were in seventh and eighth for Mercedes.
Verstappen, out early in every session, set the pace on his first hot run in Q3. He flew through the opening sector and the high-speed esses, was nailed on through the slower sweep of Spoon corner and buried the lap with a 1min 29.012sec time, an absolutely masterful display that was four-tenths clear of Piastri.

On Tuesday morning, a triumphant Ferrari celebrated its latest race win. Not this past weekend's F1 race in Montreal, though; 2023 is still looking rough for Scuderia Ferrari's open-wheel racing program. Instead, the glory was brought back to Maranello by its new endurance racing effort, which just won the 24 Hours of Le Mans after an absence of 50 years. It did it with an all-new car, against tough opposition, and the enormity of that result has taken a little time to sink in, according to Ferdinando Cannizzo, technical director of Ferrari Competitzione GT and technical director for the Ferrari 499P program.
"What I can tell you is that it is clear for us that the challenge that we accepted was very ambitious, that we finally achieved a very historical result," Cannizzo told Ars. "We are aware that the company achieved an historic results, and I think everything will mature in the days that will come; we can probably realize the value of what we have done all together."
Endurance racing is flat-out now
The nature of the Le Mans race has changed a lot since Ferrari last won overall in 1965. Then, as now, overall victory was usually up for grabs for one of the cars in the prototype class—cars designed just to go racing rather than the converted road cars that contest the GT class. And the race still takes place for 24 hours on a circuit that still includes some public roads. But in the 1960s, endurance racing was not a flat-out sport; cars were fragile, and making it to the end meant leaving plenty in reserve and being kind to the machinery.

One hundred is something of an arbitrary number, an accident of how many fingers we happen to have. But in years, it represents a long time to keep doing something again and again: like the 24 Hours of Le Mans, an annual race around an 8-mile circuit in France that exists not just as a way to entertain but also to improve the cars we drive on the road. Windshield wipers, disc brakes, fuel injection, and laserbeam headlights are just a few examples that were proved in the cauldron of the 24 Hours before appearing on cars like the one you might drive.
This weekend saw the centenary edition of the race take place. Anticipation had been building for months thanks to a new ruleset that has revitalized the top class of prototypes , now called Hypercars. After several years of Toyota facing little competition by meagerly funded privateer teams, 2023's entry list also included cars from other major manufacturers—Cadillac, Ferrari, Peugeot, and Porsche.
Legends return
Each has raced at Le Mans before, the European makes with quite some success. Across 91 actual races—world wars prevented running some years—Porsche's entries notched 19 wins, more than anyone else. Audi has the next-best record, but it has opted to spend its racing budget on Formula 1 for the foreseeable future .
