      While details of Hamilton's stunning decision continue to play out - Mercedes boss Toto Wolff said that Hamilton's move had been in the works but still surprised the Silver Arrows - it appears the veteran racer will make about $1million less once he begins driving for Ferrari.
      Accoring to Forbes, Hamilton received a salary of $55m last season with Mercedes.
      The 39-year-old British driver will make $53.9m during his first year with Ferrari, La Gazzetta dello Sport reported.
      Max Verstappen, who has won three consecutive F1 championships while dominating the sport with Red Bull, made a salary of $45m last season.

    I think he was losing faith in Merc and started looking around for seats available. Yes they did inquire at RedBull amd when it became apparent that there was no seat there, they pivoted to Ferrari who hadnt locked Carlos and figured Lewis brings more brand value. But it will be interesting seeing how he fits in a totally different culture and going to a team where Charles is their man.
    Funny though the tone is now changing from clowing Ferrari to oh great team, dream move. Oh media

    Hamilton has just announced that he's now the number two driver at Mercedes. Any team calls for position will go to Russell on the grounds of increasing his morale and confidence going into 2025. Any upgrades will be made with Russells style of driving in mind.
    At Ferrari it'll be interesting to see how Hamilton manages with a car designed for Leclerc, and how he deals with Leclerc himself. Two number ones never ends well! (See Hamilton/Rosberg, Senna/Prost, Piquet/Mansell)

When he had a fast car, he was always smiling and joking around but now he looks way more unimpressed by Mercedes. I think he has come to the conclusion that Mercedes is not making a fast enough car for him anymore which is why he is leaving but also what they said about everyone wanting to drive a Ferrari.
