As we approach the start of the 2025 Formula 1 season, more and more people are expressing the opinion that Scuderia Ferrari made a big mistake by signing Lewis Hamilton.
Now, for example, Eddie Jordan has spoken out, even lashing out at the Ferrari leadership 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 growing team? The drivers were getting along very well, Frederic Vasseur's work was beginning to bear fruit, and he finally had the opportunity to achieve serious success with the Italians after a long time. Now he has to think about reorganizing everything because he has to integrate a new member into the team, along with his ego and all the other concomitant consequences...
Don't get me wrong, Lewis Hamilton is a very nice man, one of the best guys in F1, the problem isn't that. The problem starts with Elkann breaking up a perfectly functioning unit. It's suicidal that he allowed the whole thing to happen, that they were able to sack Carlos…" - said Jordan.
