Jerome D’Ambrosio, one of Mercedes’ senior figures, will leave to go 🌱to Ferrari at the same time as Lewis Hamilton next year.

D’Ambrosio is one of team principal T🅰oto Wolff’s key aides but will exit Mercedes in 2025, report.

However, his mo💃ve to Ferrari is not linked to Hamilton’s.

D’Amrbosio’s contract is reportedly due t✨o expire at the end of this year and he wants a return to mainland Europe.

The added ﷽significance is that he will find Hamilton, Mercedes’ star driver, also arriving at Ferrari next year.

D’Ambrosio, last year, deputised for Wolff when the Mercedes boss was unable to attend two gra🐷nds prix due to knee surgery.

He🌟 became Mercedes driver development director a year ago and could find himself in a similar role at Ferraꦑri in 2025.

D’Ambrosio wa🐽s formerly the team principal🌜 of the Venturi Formula E team.

He was b✅riefly a Formula 1 driver, representing Virgin Racing in 2011ꦛ before taking on a test driver role with Lotus.

D’Ambrosio deputised for Romain Grosjean at th🅘e 2012 Italian Grand Prix, his final appearance as a driver in the championship.
