via Motorsport.comFerrari staff see Michael Schumacher similarities in Lewis Hamilton, says former engineerFormer Ferrari engineer Rob Smedley has noted that long-time Ferrari staff are drawing parallels between Lewis Hamilton and Michael Schumacher. After a challenging first season with Ferrari in 2025, Hamilton has shown significant improvement in 2026, securing his first victory with the team and several podium finishes, placing him second in the drivers' championship at the summer break. Smedley highlighted that Hamilton's presence is revitalizing the team, as he pushes them to perform better, reminiscent of Schumacher's impact when he joined Ferrari in 1996.
