Sergio Perez discusses ‘major challenges’ Lewis Hamilton faces with Ferrari move

Lewis Hamilton has been given some advice on changing Formula 1 teams from someone who’s done it on three occasions.

Hamilton stunned the world of sport on February 1 by announcing a move to Ferrari for the 2025 season.

The move will be only the second of Hamilton’s career, having won the world title with McLaren in 2008, before moving to Mercedes where he won a further six championships.

Hamilton and Mercedes became the most successful driver-team partnership in F1 history during their past 11 years together, but a fumbling of the 2022 aerodynamic rule changes left the Brit frustrated.

With little to choose between Mercedes and Ferrari ever since, Hamilton may see 2026’s engine regulation changes as his perfect chance to win a record-breaking eighth world title.

“The way you explore the whole lap, we all come together within a couple of tenths but the way each team gets the laps is very different to anything else, so I think it’s an interesting dynamic.”

Perez was a member of Ferrari’s driver academy before entering the sport with Sauber in 2011.

Winning his first Grand Prix in 2020, Perez was without a contract the following year, but was picked up at Red Bull, who have since dominated the sport.

Last season was statistically the best of any team in history with 21 wins from 22 races, and Perez has revealed the team are doing things differently this year when it comes to their car.
