F1 legend Juan Pablo Montoya believes a shift in team dynamics following 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton's decision to join Ferrari ahead of last year meant that Mercedes prioritised 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:George Russell “all season”.

In 2025, Hamilton will enter a new era, as h🌃e will race for Ferrari after 12 years at Mercedes.

The seven-time world champion moves to Maranello fo💟llowing his weakest F1 season to date.

While Hamilton ๊claimed two victories, he was comprehensively out-performed by teammate Russell, particularly in qualifying, where Hamilton was only able to topple Russell on five occasions.

Hamilton’s poor form led him to question whether he still has the speed to compete at tꦚhe top of F1.

Montoya, who raced in F1 throughout the early 2000s, is adamant that the “right envir꧑onment” at Ferrari wi🐎ll help bring out the best in Hamilton.

“The right environment will help Lꦯewis Hamilton to get back to hiꩲs best, especially in qualifying,” Montoya told mahbx.com via .

“Hamilton had a sh✤ock last year, he went from everything being built around him and getting what he needed, to whatever George Russell wanted from Mercedes. The team knew the future lay with Russell, so they prioritised him all season, not Hamilt🍃on.

“Now, the attention to detail on Hamilton’s car at Ferrari will be a lot better and any problems he may have will be solved as quickly as Russell’s problems weꦬre lജast season.”

Hamilton continues Ferrari preparation

After a ꦦhistoric first week at Maranello, Hamilton’s preparation for the new season with Ferrari continues with a second test at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya.

Hamilton will be in action later this week alongside teammate168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Charles Leclerc.
