Lewis Hamilton has reportedly been summoned by Ferrari following recent speculation about his future with the team. The seven-time Formula 1 world champion, who is set to join Ferrari in 2025, was at the center of controversy after a rival driver labeled certain claims as “utter bull****.”
The dispute appears to stem from ongoing discussions within the F1 paddock, with rumors circulating about Hamilton’s role in Ferrari’s future development. Some reports suggested that Hamilton could influence key decisions at Ferrari, including driver lineups and team strategy. However, an unnamed F1 driver has dismissed these claims outright, calling them baseless.
Hamilton has yet to respond publicly, but sources close to Ferrari insist that the team remains focused on integrating him into their system. The British driver, who currently races for Mercedes, will make the high-profile switch to Ferrari at the end of the 2024 season. His move is expected to shake up the F1 grid, with many anticipating a fierce rivalry between him and Ferrari’s current star, Charles Leclerc.
Despite the controversy, Ferrari team principal Frédéric Vasseur has downplayed any tension, emphasizing that the team’s priority is preparing for the future. Meanwhile, Mercedes boss Toto Wolff has reiterated his support for Hamilton during his final season with the Silver Arrows.
With the 2024 season in full swing, speculation will likely continue, but for now, Hamilton remains focused on closing his Mercedes chapter before starting a new one at Ferrari.
