I mean I know that it was all but official but seeing the announcement is so surreal. Welcome Lewis! On another note, surely this season sees Ferrari prioritizing Charles over Sainz heavily right...

Ferrari won't compete for the WDC so at least we'll have something else to talk about

Loved Ferrari when MS was there.

Hated the dirty cheats when supporting LH.

Have to now train my brain to love them again :)

Strange move given how bad Ferrari as a team have been recently. I doubt it’s a money thing. Presumably they had a big list of impressive things for the future that sold it to Lewis.

Lewis seems to think they can, leaving a team he was #1 driver. Also the reports of one of the big reasons for him going to Ferrari is because his favorite engineer, Serra is now at Ferrari and they both agreed on which concept route to take is interesting. i guess we'll see if this is another Mclaren to Merc move

I feel for Sainz. From being team leader in Mclaren and almost winning there, to get the dream job at Ferrari and winning twice, to being spat out after just 4 seasons...
If i would get the money to start my own F1 team, i would revive Arrows

The multiyear deal shows great confidence in the 2026 project. Fingers crossed.

My prediction is that Charles will leave in 2026 because the car won't be competitive.
Lewis will continue like Alo. He has nothing to prove really.

The most importanting thing for me is that Lewis leaves Merc after trying the W15 in the simulator. He wouldn't have taken this decision if the W15 was a rocketship

Regarding Ferrari ofc we can make joke about them
But there're the only time who competed with RB with the F1-75. In fact this car was the fastest at the beginning of 2022
Last year, the team made tremendous progress despite the limitation in the design of the car. They clearly outdeveloped Merc despite finishing behind them in the WCC

4 seasons at Ferrari for a driver like Carlos is very respectable imo
