The goal is to improve the qualification, Ferrari’s weak point this year. After working on Monday’s simulator, the team has new ideas. Lewis also talks about the film “F1: The Movie”
“I arrived in the garage this morning and it was all like that … red.” In Lewis Hamilton they shine his eyes as he tells of his first weekend as Ferrarist in the Principality of Monk. After all, “Every weekend for me is a novelty, I am in the first year with the team and it is really fantastic. I confess that it is still difficult for me to describe what it feels like to be part of this team. I have always passed in front of their garage here in Monaco and I wondered what it meant to be inside … and today it is happening. I am enthusiastic, I cannot hide it”.
I work for Monaco

The beginning with Ferrari was far from expectations, and this Hamilton knows it well, but English confirmed that the team worked hard to prepare the weekend of Munich. “I can definitely say that Charles was particularly fast here last year – jokes Lewis – but we know that the car has changed and we know that there are some aspects on which we must improve. What I would like to remember is that these guys, the engineers and all my team, never stop. They come on the track, then they return to the factory and then again on the track working continuously on the data. This weekend we will try something.
Ferrari harmony

More generally, English reiterated how the link between him and Ferrari is “progressing naturally”. “Certainly at the beginning it was complicated for both, but now there is a nice harmony and this aspect will reflect on the rest of the season. Just think of the last weekend in Imola. We took great risks and obtained a wonderful comeback in front of our fans”. And just remembering the weekend of ENZO and Dino Ferrari, Lewis does not hide: “I felt the pressure. Although I was already accustomed to a large audience in Mercedes, especially in Silverstone, I believe that the relationship was different. They followed me then how they follow me today, while in Ferrari people are in love with the stables and is a love that spreads all over the world”.

Yesterday Hamilton was then the protagonist in the premier of the new film “F1: The Movie”, of which he is co-producer. “At the beginning all the logos of the houses that worked on the project appear – says Hamilton – and at a certain point there is also mine, the down Apollo, and it is fantastic to know that part of my ideas have been used in this film. I am really proud”. And it certainly does not end here: “I am already working on three new scripts – reveals English – and one of these is in the screenplay phase. There will be animated films, documentaries … maybe some TV series. But above all films. I really love them”.
