Elkann: Hamilton didn't come to Ferrari for the money
Lewis Hamilton's move to Ferrari paid significant dividends even before the first race. Some believe that the reason for the transition lies in the commercial plane, with the appearance of the news, the value of Ferrari shares rose by 6%, which is $ 4 billion, so no matter how much the contract cost, it has already paid off. But Ferrari president John Elkann says that's not the point.
John Elkann: "Some commentators claim that Lewis' move is purely for marketing reasons, but that's not fair to the driver. The truth is, Lewis doesn't need it, and Ferrari doesn't need it. We want to win races and titles, and delight the fans with great results on the track, and if that works out, then the rest will come naturally. The possibilities of this cooperation are endless."
