Lewis Hamilton, the Formula 1 star who grew up idolizing Michael Schumacher, has made a significant move in his career by joining Ferrari for the next season. Hamilton, who has previously expressed his admiration for Schumacher by pretending to be the German icon in video games during his childhood, described joining Ferrari as fulfilling a boyhood dream. Beyond the track, Hamilton's switch to Ferrari is seen as a strategic move that could benefit the brand significantly. His influence is expected to boost car and merchandise sales, potentially making him worth billions to Ferrari, similar to his impact on Mercedes under Toto Wolff. Hamilton, known for his advocacy for diversity in motorsport, ensured that promoting diversity would be a priority at Ferrari before signing his 2025 #F1 contract.
