Horner Evaluates Hamilton’s Major Transfer: ‘He’s Always a Competitor’

Christian Horner, who has seen many races, knows Lewis Hamilton‘s skills well. He’s curious about Hamilton’s move to Ferrari and wonders how it will go.

The big news came before the 2024 season started. After the last three races of this year, Hamilton will join Ferrari for a new adventure. “It would be very interesting to see how Lewis acclimatises to the life of Ferrari. He’s obviously coming out of a very comfortable environment, one that he knows very well over the last… more than 10 years,” Horner shared with talkSport.

Hamilton’s Potential at Ferrari

Horner thinks Hamilton is always a strong contender for the world championship because he has won it seven times before. “Charles Leclerc is, again, another very fast driver. But Ferrari is a team that looks like they’re picking momentum up. And so, for sure, a driver of Lewis’s quality is always going to be a challenger.”

Some fans might wonder if Hamilton can bring success to Ferrari like he did with Mercedes.

Horner also feels that Hamilton may have timed his move perfectly, just like when he switched from McLaren to Mercedes and won six titles there. He suggests, “I think Ferrari… He could be just jumping at the right time. I think he’s obviously seen things that he’s chosen to change teams for because he believes in the future of Ferrari.”

What do you think about Hamilton’s decision?
