Lewis Hamilton has expressed disapproval towards rumors linking Christian Horner to a potential move to Ferrari, stating that it is not beneficial for the team’s quest for better performance. Hamilton is actively working to help Ferrari regain its winning form in what has been a challenging season since his switch from Mercedes.
Previously, Hamilton showed support for Frederic Vasseur, which was also echoed by Ferrari when they extended Vasseur’s contract. Recent media speculation has suggested Horner could be available in 2026 after finalizing his departure from Red Bull.
Addressing the rumors in Austin before the United States Grand Prix, Hamilton emphasized the importance of continuity for the team’s success. He mentioned that distractions like the Horner rumors are unhelpful while highlighting the team’s commitment to Vasseur.
Hamilton stressed the team’s dedication to improving performance and staying focused amid distractions. He emphasized the need to concentrate on future goals, including building a stronger foundation for next year’s car. Hamilton, currently in sixth place in the drivers’ championship, aims to achieve his first podium finish with Ferrari.
