168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton says he is “the most motivated and focused” he’s ever been heading into his final F1 season with Mercedes.

Hamilton, who has won six of his sꦉeven wor⭕ld championships with Mercedes since joining the team in 2013, is leaving the German manufacturer at the end of the year in order to make a blockbuster switch to Ferrari.

The 39-yeᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚar-old only signed a fresh two-year deal with Mercedes last summer but chose to activate a break clause so he could complete what he has described as being a “dream” move to Ferrari.

Mercedes have won just one grand prix since F1’s current aerodynamic rules were introduced in 2022, while Hamilton haไsꦰ endured a two-season winless drought.

Before joini🍸ng Ferrari, Hamilton is determined to end his illustrious Mercedes stint on 🍷a high.

“I feel the most motivated and focused I’ve ever ♔♍been,” Hamilton said at the launch of Mercedes’ W15 car at Silverstone.

"ꦕEvery year you come back and you are like ‘𓆏I’m fitter than ever’ and all these different things.

“But I generally feel I put more work and more time and more focus into preparation this year. I never tꦿhought at this point in my life I’d have hunger like I do right now.

“To finish on a high with the team would be a dream. We’ve gone through 🌃a whole heap togetheꦜr, so to finish on a high, it would be the greatest honour to help them get back to the top.”

Mercedes hope their silver and black 2024 challenger, described as a “complete relaunch” by team principal Toto Wolff, will help them close൩ the gap to Red Bull, who have dominated the last two years.

"The target is to do a good job, look inwards, try to have the car on track that is predictable and has lots of downforce and do a solid🔜 job and deliver on our targets, to give a car to Lewis and George that they enjoy driving and not as difficult as the previous years,” Wolff added.

“And hopef♔ully in Bahrain in a week's time, we will have more good feedback than bad."
