Ferrari’s team boss Frederic Vasseur says Lewis Hamilton doesn’t need “tons of hours of acclimatisation” and adds “he is experienced enough to be quick on the first day”.

Lewis Hamilton will join Ferrari in 2025, and now team boss Frederic Vasseur reveals he will drive his first Ferrari F1 car during the ‘Testing of Previous Cars’ days ahead of the 2025 season.

“I’m not sure that he needs tons of hours of acclimatisation,” Vasseur told Autosport.

“He is experienced enough to be quick on the first day, or at least very soon. We’ll have one or two TPC days, plus the test in Bahrain, and that will be enough.”

Vassuer adds that part of the team back at the factory is already focusing on 2025 and Lewis’ arrival.

“For sure we have part of the team already focusing on ’25, on the test plan, on the communication and so, with Lewis being part of this.

“But not on the race team and it’s not on my mind,” the Frenchman concluded.
