“I think we can fight for the championship. I really mean it, I believe this team has everything needed to battle for the title,” said the Briton on the Milan stage, set against the iconic backdrop of Castello Sforzesco.
“It’s amazing to be here. This is my first time in front of the Ferrari fans. There’s nothing like the passion of the Tifosi—this is all new to me. I’ve been to Fiorano, but this is the first time I’ve been this close to them. It’s my first time performing with this car, and being in Italy is truly special. Thank you all, I love you. It’s a great honor, and I hope to do a great job for all of you this year.” – he pointed out.
“I love being in Italy and with this team,” he concluded. “Since January 20, it’s been incredible—we’ve been pushing at full throttle every day. I can’t wait for a weekend off before heading to Australia. We’ve had a lot to do in such a short time. Even getting used to driving this car took some time, but I love these challenges, and I’m excited for the journey ahead.” – the seven-time Formula 1 world champion concluded.
