Lewis Hamilton recently admitted that it would have been a bigger risk to stay at Mercedes, which has shown almost no progress for years.
So, listening to his instincts, he ended up at Scuderia Ferrari…
"In fact, every new opportunity is a leap into the unknown. No one can predict the future, whether you change your job or your team, it always comes with a risk. However, I think the real big risk is getting stuck in a comfortable situation, because that makes you arrogant."
Following this - let's call it instinct or simply intuition - I signed with Scuderia Ferrari. I wanted a challenge, because that's exactly what I need right now. Here are wonderful people waiting for me, a wonderful opportunity, I'm looking forward to working with them and I believe that together we can achieve something truly special.
Every year is a new beginning for me. Even in those moments when I was winning consistently, I knew it was a temporary state and that nothing was guaranteed in the future. Every day I have to fight hard for success, to get in the car as a better driver. My intuitions and this mentality have taken me to where I have achieved much more than I ever thought I was capable of.” - Lewis Hamilton reflected on his situation.
