.

Born in 1948, Arnoux è an old lion of Formula 1. He has taken part in as many as 164 GPs, winning seven of them. A lover of thrills, è he is, even today, an important voice within the F1 world. Hamilton&#39s move to Ferrari è reason enough to expose his thoughts, as always direct and tough, exactly as was his style on the track.

"If Ferrari in 2025 brings out a beastly chassis and engine, Hamilton will be able to make good results, but compared to younger drivers, such as Verstappen, he will still struggle", the clear words of the former French driver to Gazzetta dello Sport. Statements that highlight how age, for the 75-year-old Arnoux, can be a limitation for Hamilton and his dream of winning the World Championship with Ferrari.

In addition, Arnoux bets heavily on Leclerc: "Leclerc’s talent today for me è far superior to Hamilton’s talent at his age. È it is true that experience è is important, but Leclerc also has a lot of it now. That’s why I don’t think he took the news badly: he knows that Lewis has a certain ageà ". A joke also about the possible rivalry between Leclerc and Hamilton: "The biggest enemy è your teammate".
