Lewis Hamilton hands Ferrari F1 boss Fred Vasseur strongest show of support yet

Lewis Hamilton has expressed strong support for Ferrari's team principal Fred Vasseur amidst ongoing speculation about his future. Hamilton praised Vasseur as the right leader to guide the team, especially after recent comments from Christian Horner that stirred media attention and frustration within Ferrari. Vasseur's leadership has contributed to the team's current position of second in the constructors' championship, a significant improvement from the previous year.

Hamilton highlighted the negativity surrounding Ferrari compared to other teams, noting that mistakes are scrutinised more heavily due to the team's iconic status. While he sees potential for structural changes within Ferrari, he chose to keep his specific ideas private, acknowledging the differences in leadership styles between Ferrari and his own team, Mercedes.
