Hamilton: "I signed with Ferrari on instinct"

Lewis Hamilton recently admitted that staying at Mercedes, which has shown little development for many years, would have been a greater risk for the progression of his career.

Therefore, listening to his instincts, he ended up at Scuderia Ferrari...

"In fact, every new opportunity is a leap into the unknown. No one can foresee the future when you change jobs or teams; it always comes with risks. However, I believe the real big risk is getting stuck in a situation that is comfortable because that only makes you complacent.

As a result of this - let's call it instinct or even intuition - I signed with Scuderia Ferrari. I craved a challenge because that's exactly what I need right now. There are wonderful people, wonderful opportunities waiting for me here, and I look forward to working together, believing that we can achieve something truly special together.

Every single year is a new beginning for me. Even during those times when I was continuously winning, I knew it was a state, and nothing is guaranteed in the future. Every day I have to fight hard for success, to be a better driver every day I get into the car. My instincts and this mindset have brought me to achieve much more than I ever thought I was capable of." - reflected on his situation Lewis Hamilton.
