Brundle reveals what Hamilton MUST do to succeed at Ferrari

Sky Sports F1 pundit Martin Brundle opines that for Lewis Hamilton to achieve success with Ferrari, he'll need to follow the example set by Michael Schumacher and truly "embed himself" into the iconic Italian team.

Ferrari holds a unique status in F1, with driving for the team often considered the pinnacle for many racers.

The passion on show at Monza exemplifies the Italian fervour not just for F1 but specifically for Ferrari, with the passionate 'tifosi' contributing to a distinct experience at the Scuderia compared to other teams on the grid.

As Hamilton prepares to don the renowned red race suit next year, Brundle suggests that the seven-time world champion, known for his global property portfolio and ventures outside of F1, may need to prioritise his professional commitment over personal endeavours to make an immediate impact at Ferrari.

Drawing parallels with Schumacher's success at Ferrari, Brundle stresses the importance of fully immersing oneself in the culture and ethos of the team.

“How could this go for Lewis? You could do a Michael Schumacher and turn them into champions again.

"Or he could do a Fernando Alonso and a Sebastian Vettel where it's kind of a bit of a near miss, but look pretty good on occasions."

"I think if Lewis really wants to get a fast start in what's a completely different team to the seven British-based teams, over there in Italy, I think he'll have to go and embed himself in it."
