As we approach the start of the 2025 Formula 1 season, more and more people are expressing the opinion that Scuderia Ferrari committed a great mistake by hiring Lewis Hamilton.
For example, Eddie Jordan expressed himself vehemently, harshly attacking Ferrari's management in a podcast:
"I have a message for John Elkann, the group's president: What the hell was he thinking when he fired Carlos Sainz, with whom Scuderia Ferrari was a friendly, predictable, well-structured and constantly developing team? The drivers got along very well with each other, Frederic Vasseur's work was starting to bear fruit, finally having the opportunity to achieve serious successes with the Italians. Now he has to think about reorganizing everything, because he has to integrate a new member into the team, with his ego and all the other implications..."
"Don't get me wrong, Lewis Hamilton is an extremely nice person, one of the best people in the F1 paddock, that's not the problem. The problem starts when Elkann destroyed a perfectly functional unit, it's tantamount to suicide that he allowed all this, that they were able to kick Carlos out..." - Jordan concluded.
