Lewis Hamilton has disclosed that he has recently convened a number of urgent high-level meetings with Ferrari executives in preparation for the Belgian Grand Prix. These discussions, described as “crunch” meetings, are part of Hamilton’s efforts to turn things around after a disappointing start to his debut season with the iconic Italian team.
Hamilton made it clear that he has no intention of repeating the misfortunes of past Ferrari drivers like Fernando Alonso and Sebastian Vettel, both of whom failed to capture a World Championship title with the team. His determination to bring success to Ferrari remains strong, despite early struggles.
Acknowledging the high expectations surrounding his switch to Ferrari, Hamilton emphasized the importance of these critical conversations, pointing out that they are essential in aligning strategies and improving car performance. He views this phase as a pivotal moment in the season, demanding urgent focus and unity within the team.
The seven-time World Champion also stressed that his goal remains unchanged — to win races and ultimately secure an eighth title. He believes that with proper coordination and problem-solving, Ferrari can still mount a competitive campaign this year.
As the Formula 1 world turns its attention to Spa-Francorchamps, Hamilton’s proactive stance has sent a strong message: he’s not content with simply being part of Ferrari’s legacy — he wants to redefine it through victory and titles.
