The knowledge that Lewis Hamilton could take from Mercedes to Fer🧔rari will be limited, Damon Hill insists.

Hamilton signed a dea🍷l at the beginning of this year to join Ferrari💖 in 2025, where he will seek an all-time record eighth F1 championship.

He has suddenly hit race-winning form for the first time since in three years, after victory in two of the past three gra▨nds prix before the summer break.

Mercedes’ resurge♉nce has given Hamilton his spark back but, in his final months at the team, it could become more difficult ꦜfor him.

💯“It’s got to,” ex-F1 champion Hill told the F1 Nation podcast.

“He’s got to be excluded fro♑m conversations about what’s coming next year. They don’t want him taking insights to Ferrariꦏ.

“It may be that he’s deprived of more information. But they are an honourable team and Toto is an honourable p🌟erson. He will🙈 be treated fairly in the team.

“But there’s only so much that you can give away when somebody is leav🐻ing.

“It’s not like there is a technical person who, when thܫey leave a team has to go on gar⭕dening leave. The drivers can go from Day 1 to the next team.

“Drivers are not n🦹ecessarily privy to all of ꦡthe technical stuff - they might not understand it!

“There is a need to understand ve🃏ry complex technical things which very few driveඣrs can do.

“You’d know what direction, in general wha𒉰t the team is up to.

“Lewis could go to Ferrari and say ‘we changed ♊our fr🌃ont wing and it did this…’

“He♏ can tell them that but they’ll probably already🍸 know. Everyone watches the other teams like hawks. Nothing is missed.

“You can’t see what’s under the cover or what’s going on with the power unit. That is deep science. Y♏ou can never understand what’s going on under the hood. There is only so much you can take, as a driver.”

La🌸st month, Hamilton insisted “I haven't been excluded from any meetings” yet.

But he accepted that, towards the end of the year and his glorious spell with Mercedes, the team must discuss 2025 plans wi♍thout him.

“If there's a point where they're like, 'we'd prefer you not to be in this meeting', that'🍸s totaജlly fine with me,” Hamilton said.

Currently, Mercedes have a far mor🍨e competitive car than Ha𝄹milton’s next team, Ferrari.

Merced♑es have won three races this year, twice through Hamilton and once ไvia George Russell.

Ferrari drivers Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz have won one apiece, at the beginnin🅷g of the season.
