    Right. Again, provide info on where he said he hated Ferrari and Schumi.

    Provide where he said he liked or loved Ferrari? We can go around in circles like lawyers..

    Truth is, Lewis was never a Ferrari fan. 100 million is nice.

    That quote is very telling considering the opposite of "love" isn't "hate." It's "indifference."

    Standard PR nonsense from every footballer and F1 driver when they move into a new team.

    For me, I will go all out for Charles, and really hope he trashes everyone out there next season

    Yet he told and has been confirmed by Vasseur he had a dream to drive for Ferrari, years ago when he drove for Vasseur in Jr Formula. Was actively courted by Fred and the Ferrari CEO. Your post is absurd. I guess all involved are lying eh? Truth is you are wrong to begin with. Move on! You dont like LH-wow lol. World turns..........

    He owned more Ferraris in his personal collection than 98% of everyone on Ferrari chat. We all know that. Is your willful ignorance, born from hate or stupidity? Because you aren't trying too hard to make a worthwhile argument.
    "In theory, anybody with enough money can go out and buy the same Ferrari 599 Aperta that Hamilton owns. But the same can’t be said about his rare LaFerrari and his even rarer LaFerrari Aperta."

    Big impact in the media etc:

    The photograph of Hamilton alongside a Ferrari F40 supercar became the most-liked Formula 1 post in Instagram history.





    The AI-powered sports big data analytics company works with the likes of the Women’s Tennis Association (WTA) to measure sports sponsorship and sports data using real-time data tracking.

    “Every logo placement on Lewis’s kit delivers incredible value, showcasing the synergy between athletes' social media presence and team sponsors,” said Sponsorlytix CEO and founder Omar Al Raisi.

    Using its AI and algorithms, Sponsorlytix measured the post when it reached the eight-million impression-mark and calculated brand values generated for Ferrari sponsors.


    It discovered that the individual post was worth $62,100 to title sponsor HP as well as $50,000 for Ferrari itself, while the likes of Shell, IBM, VGW, Ceva and PUMA all came in over the $40,000 mark.

    Those figures were generated from one post, just hours after it had been uploaded by Hamilton and before he has even started a grand prix for Ferrari.

    So, while debates over how he will fare alongside new team-mate Charles Leclerc this season will rage on, the business-side of his arrival is already paying off.

    It's going to be fun with Lewis on the team. Particularly on here with the two fractions for and against him. Can't wait for the races.

    It's the "honeymoon" phase for the media. They're all giddy and happy. Wait till he performs on track against Leclerc. IF he lacks in performance, they'll come at him like pit vipers......which is usual.

    True. And if he doesn't lack in performance the honeymoon will be extended.

    Exactly ! Let's hope that this enthusiastic mob, the tifosi and Hamilton followers don't come too disappointed in the end.

    Like you said "the harder they fall" if the results don't match the expectation. I remember how Prost was piloried in the Italian papers once ...

    All this is totally alien to me.

    Haha, you know kids (and adults!) can love multiple things at once right?
    And sometime their "Absolute Favorite!" changes depending on the month, week, or day What aspiring racer growing up in the 80/90s would not want to be racing for McLaren and Ferrari? He was part of the McLaren Driver Development Programme as a kid...what do you expect him to talk about? :p

    Nonsense.

    Im for the best for Ferrari with both drivers helping the team achieve good results. We need both to be strong. I sense Charles is stronger as he grew a bit last year and how its seems knowing LH was coming possibly helped that. If you listen keenly to Vasseur that was very much a part of this movement.
