He is undoubtedly the man of the moment. These days when we talk about Formula 1, the first thought cannot fail to be Lewis Hamilton and his arrival at Ferrari. An arrival, that of the seven-time world champion, which will only materialize from 2025 and, precisely for this reason, the doubts about how to manage Sir Hamilton at Fanta F1 in view of the 2024 season - in which he will still race with Mercedes and not with Ferrari – there is certainly no shortage of them.
Hamilton in Ferrari, is it right to take him to Fanta F1 in 2024?
"Hamilton? With a car at his disposal he can absolutely fight for the title”. Clear, direct and concise words spoken by Toto Wolff in an interview with “La Gazzetta dello Sport”. The message that the Mercedes team principal wanted to send was very clear: Hamilton must return to fighting for the title. To do this, however, it will be necessary to have a fast car available again. Ultimately, in fact, Hamilton has always done his part - even when the car didn't allow him to - the results at home. This is demonstrated by the numbers, which are also reflected in Fanta F1: in addition to the two Red Bulls, who lead the standings, with an average points of +14.30, Hamilton confirms himself as the third best driver of the 2023 season.
The pros and cons
The statistics certainly made it clear how positive his year was and how betting on Hamilton can always be a winning weapon. Also for this year, investing in him at Fanta F1 could be the right strategy to have guaranteed bonuses (which could be worth double by taking advantage of the captain bonus). Obviously, everything will also depend on the car that will be presented on February 14th. The first two races - which will take place in Bahrain and Saudi Arabia respectively - can allow fantasy managers to understand the feeling that Hamilton will have on his W15, before being able to decide starting from the third GP (moment in which the season will begin in the community league) whether or not to bet on the seven-time world champion.
