Coulthard Questions Hamilton's Ferrari Move Without Staff

Former F1 driver David Coulthard has questioned why Lewis Hamilton did not bring any personnel from Mercedes to Ferrari, emphasizing the importance of a race engineer.

Hamilton joined Ferrari in 2025 after a 12-year stint with Mercedes. Coulthard noted that while drivers adapt, the relationship with a race engineer is crucial for success. In his first season with the Maranello outfit, Hamilton has struggled to adapt and will also be paired with a new race engineer.
