Hamilton reportedly left Mercedes for Ferrari because the latter offered him a longer contract and more money. Furthermore, he had been in a losing slump—with no wins in 2022 or 2023—and hoped to revive his career on the new team. He won the British Grand Prix in July 2024, his first race victory since 2021, and three weeks later he won the Belgian Grand Prix, his 105th career F1 victory.
