2021 MotoGP champion Fabio Quartararo says Piero Ferrari, son of Ferrari founder Enzo, hinted to him that Lewis Hamilton will be joining the Italian team.
In a talk with Motorsport.com, Yamaha MotoGP rider Fabio Quartararo said Piero Ferrari, son of Ferrari founder Enzo, hinted to him that Lewis Hamilton will be joining the Italian team, while the Frenchman was visiting the team’s Maranello HQ.
“It was strange, because I was visiting Maranello a couple of days before the announcement and Piero Ferrari suggested it to me,” Quartararo said.
“But at that moment I didn’t know how to interpret it, I didn’t get it. I didn’t fall for it until it became official.”

As for Lewis’ switch, Quartararo said:
“I always remember Lewis at Mercedes. I’m not even aware of his time at McLaren.
“It’s going to be strange to see him dressed in red,” he concluded.
