Hamilton, one step away from Ferrari: the signing of the decade in Formula 1. The seven-time champion, at 39, will try to win another World Cup with the historic team with Charles Leclerc as his partner.

If the move is confirmed, Carlos Sainz would be left without a team as soon as the 2024 season ends and his options now are Mercedes itself, where Hamilton comes from, Audi or Aston Martin. The Briton has an exit clause with his current team and will exercise it to complete the change.
