Hamilton Drives Ferrari Overhaul to End Title Drought

Lewis Hamilton is determined to break Ferrari's two-decade Formula 1 title drought and avoid the fate of prior world champions who did not win with the team. Ahead of the Belgian Grand Prix, Hamilton has engaged in extensive meetings with Ferrari leadership, including chairman John Elkann and CEO Benedetto Vigna, providing detailed documents on areas for improvement. He is actively involved in preparations for the 2026 F1 regulations, focusing on structural, technical, and marketing changes within Ferrari. Despite a difficult start to his Ferrari career and ongoing performance challenges, Hamilton is pushing for improvements across multiple departments and is challenging the team's status quo. His efforts have been met positively by Ferrari leadership and technical staff, who are collaborating closely with him to address both current and future car issues. Hamilton remains focused on winning his eighth world title and delivering Ferrari’s first drivers’ championship since 2007.
