Sir Lewis Hamilton has spoken out for the first time after he crashed during a pre-season test which caused ‘significant damage’ to his Ferrari. The seven-time Formula 1 champion’s Ferrari career began last week and he has been testing some of their older cars in order to get acclimatised with his new team.

Mercedes boss Toto Wolff has delivered a strong message to his former driver Lewis Hamilton following his Ferrari unveiling. The seven-time champion made the switch to the Scuderia during the off-season following his departure from the Silver Arrows, as he looks to become a championship contender once again.
