The scenario is known. Lewis Hamilton’s contract with Mercedes is about to expire at the end of this season and until the moment of renewal, which team principal Toto Wolff has always taken for granted in recent weeks, any scenario is possible. Nor is it a mystery that in Ferrari there is a situation of reconstruction and the discontents of Charles Leclerc they are fertile ground for the blossoming of market scenarios of all kinds. Indeed, the Daily Mail underlines that one of the options on the table is precisely that of a sensational exchange between Ferrari and Mercedes, which if Hamilton loses, would sign the Monegasque.

But the newspaper itself assumes that the main option would be to create a Leclerc-Hamilton duo. This would assume the exit of Carlos Sainz. Hamilton is 38 years old and not many opportunities ahead of him to try to reach the coveted eighth title. Given that the Red Bull she is more than settled with Max Verstappen, in this context, an element to consider will be the level of competitiveness that Mercedes will be able to recover in recent months compared to Red Bull. If the W14 were to recover speed, a renewal of Lewis with Stuttgart would take on more substance. In England, however, they are also betting on the lure of a Ferrari that would place him at the center of a winning project, a suggestion to which Hamilton himself may not be insensitive.
