Celebrity F1 fan Jeremy Clarkson has questioned aspects of 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lewis Hamilton’s start at Ferrari.

Se𝔍ven-time world champion Hamilton has made the blockbuster switch from Mercedes to join F1 rivals Ferrari f෴or the 2025 season, where he will team up alongside Charles Leclerc.

The 40-year-old Briton heads to Ferrari hoping to emulate Michael Schumacher’s success, win a record-breaking eighth worldꦑ title and end the Scud꧙eria’s 16-year wait for a championship trophy.

However, Clarkson, who last week made fun of Hamilton and Ferrari’s official announcement photo on 💖social media, pointed out de👍tails of the driver’s unveiling which he disagrees with.

“It could be argued that Lewis Hamilton wants a record-breaking eighth world championship before he retires, and moved to Ferrari because he reckons that this year they will havꦫe the fastest car,” Clarkson wrote in his column for The Sun newspaper.

“He may have a point. Early indications on the rumour mi💞ll suggest it’s very fast indeed."

Jeremy Clarkson critical of Lewis Hamilton

“However, if he’s so keen on that eighth world titl🎀e, you’d imagi🍌ne that he’d have arrived at the factory on day one, keen to know the car’s secrets and how he can extract the most from its vast arsenal of racing trickery," Clarkson continued.

“Instead, he turned up𒉰 in an 💟SUV in a suit and tie and posed for pictures before talking to fans, under the watchful eye of a video drone which luckily was there to capture the moment.

“Next, there was a tour of the team’s headquarters where, in slow motion, we saw the fawning 🐲engineers and the applause.

“And then, eventually, he went on to the track, in an 𒆙F1 Ferrari that’s three years old.

“I’m told his new house isn’t anywhere near the team’s HQ. It’s in Milan, and he doesn’t even commute in a Ferrarꦑi road car, choosing instead to use Fiat’s helicopter.

🅠“It made me wonder. What is Lewis now? A drꦑiver? Or a superstar?

“What I do know is he’ll have his work cut out to beat his team-mate Charles Leclerc, who speaks Italian, knows the team, doesn’t spend quite so long posing for pictures and, thanks to a single-lap shootout, is regarded by many to be the fꦰastest driver of them all.

“Maybe Lewis is aware of this.

“And maybe he signed for Ferrari for a different reason – he knows he’s past his🧸 prime now and he didn’t want to retire having neve🧸r driven for motorsport’s crown jewel.

“Either way, I wish him well.”

It is not𓂃 the first time Clarkson has highlighted doubts about Hamilton’s performance.

After a difficult race in Brazil last year, Cla♐rkson suggested Hamilton was “too old”𒐪.
