168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton has described his switch to Ferrari as the “most exciting period of my life” ahead of his first F1 rac👍e with the team at the season-opening Australian Grand 𒀰Prix.

18 years on from his F1 debut with McLaren, ♒Hamilton will embark on t🥀he next chapter of his legendary career.

Unsurprisingly, Hamilton’s mov♎e to Ferrari has dominated the F1 headlines throughout the off-season.

Every part of Hamilton’s prepar๊ation with Ferrari has been scrutinised, from his first visit to Maranello to his first shakedown.

Hamilton’s switch from Mercedes hꦚas seemingly given him a new lease of life after a difficult 2024 campaign.

Speaking ahead of the first race in Australia in the FIA press conference, Hamilton described the new challenge of ra💃cing for a different team as “exciting and challenging.”

“As I said a while ago, I am still learning this new car. It’s quite a lot differeℱnt to what I am used to in my previous car in terms of Mercedes p꧑ower coming into Ferrari power,” Hamilton said on Thursday. 

“It’s something quite new, different vibration. Di♔fferent way of working. The whole team works completely differently. I was just sitting and looking at the race trace from last year and it’s upside down compared to the previous ones so I am looking at it… the same for you? (to Sainz, alongside him) I don’t understand it at all.

“Looking at things from a different perspective makes it exc෴iting and challenging. This is the most exciting per𝓀iod of my life so I am really just enjoying it. I am so excited to get in the car tomorrow.”

Hamilton dismisses pressure talk

Hamilton’s switch to Ferrari brings together t⭕𝓰he sport’s most successful driver and team.

As a result, expectations are high, particularly as Ferrari ended last year as🍸 the second-fastest team.

Ferrari narro▨wly missed out on the 2024 F1 constructors’ championship, finishing just 14 points behind McLaren at the end of the season.

However, Hamilton batted away any talk 🌌of𒀰 additional pressure driving for Ferrari.

“I 🍰think always through the years the pressure I put on myself has always been ten times higher than any other pressure put upon me.

“I have not joined this team♔ and been made to feel any pressure. I have an expectation on myself. I know what I can bring. I know what I can deliver. I know what it’s going to take to do that and it’s just getting your head down, working away.

“I come with a very open mind coming into t🅠his weekend. It is about getting into a season, into a good rhythm.”

Hamilton has an impressive record at Albert Park ov🧜er the years, taking pole position at every race between 2014 and 20🐻19.
