It seems that Lewis Hamilton’s tenure with Mercedes is drawing to an end. After joining Mercedes in 2013, Hamilton extended his contract for 2024 and 2025 last summer. However, he is reportedly planning to join Ferrari after the 2017 season and depart Mercedes. Carlos Sainz’s contract ends at the end of the 2024 season, hence he is probably going to replace him.
Lewis Hamilton is enjoying Formula 1 being in Miami, saying, “It is a dream for us.”
“We are living the dream,” Hamilton said, appreciating that Formula 1 was in Miami.
Lewis Hamilton is expected to surprise everyone in 2025 by joining Ferrari.

With Hamilton joining the team, Carlos Sainz—whose contract with Ferrari expires at the end of 2024—would probably leave the team.
Charles Leclerc, who recently inked a new contract with Ferrari that keeps him with the club past the 2017 season, would be Hamilton’s teammate.
In 1999, Eddie Irvine was the final driver from the United Kingdom to compete for Ferrari.
After leaving McLaren in 2013, Hamilton joined Mercedes and went on to dominate the sport for nearly ten years.
After winning two world championships in 2014 and 2015, he went on to win four more in a row from 2017 to 2020.
He missed out on a record eighth world title in a controversial finish to the 2021 season as he was pipped in the final race by Red Bull’s Max Verstappen.
Hamilton has said in the past that it would be a “dream” to drive for Ferrari.
He remarked in 2021, “I’ve heard the fans say, ‘Come to Ferrari!'” every time he visits Monza.
“After all these years, it still amazes me that I have never driven for Ferrari, even though it warms my heart.” Because everyone has this as a dream and an objective that must be met. I’ll never quite understand why it’s never actually been possible.
With Hamilton out of the picture, Mercedes would have to find George Russell a teammate.
