Countdown to Lewis Hamilton’s arrival in Maranello, the British driver will arrive on Monday to test the simulator.
It’s a hot time, despite what the thermometer might say, in Maranello. Lewis Hamilton will arrive on Monday in Emilia Romagna to visit the Ferrari factory, meet the employees, and approach the 677 project for the first time.
The week’s schedule has already been set, with the seven-time world champion set to test the simulator on Monday, and, according to early reports, Charles Leclerc will be joining him. The Monegasque driver has expressed his desire to be present, perhaps to study and learn from the former Mercedes driver right from the start.
Leclerc has never hidden his admiration for a champion like Lewis Hamilton, and now that he will have him just a few meters away, he will be able to absorb different techniques and approaches in preparation for the weekend. Hamilton, on the other hand, will also benefit from the confidence and driving style of a veteran like Leclerc at Ferrari.
The program will continue in the following days, with the two drivers set to hit the track on January 21 or 22 (more likely on the 22nd) behind the wheel of the F1-75, the car that performed well in the first part of the 2022 season. It will be a unique opportunity for the many fans who will flock to the Fiorano circuit, with Lewis Hamilton expected to take to the track in the morning, while Charles Leclerc will drive in the afternoon.
