F1 | Hamilton: “Did I talk to John Elkann? What happens behind closed doors remains private."

The rumors that would like to have not died down Lewis Hamilton arrive at Ferrari's court starting from the 2021 season.

Last weekend, where the last round of the 2019 World Championship took place on the Yas Marina track, The indiscretion launched by La Gazzetta dello Sport has caused discussion on the two meetings held this year between the six-time English world champion and the president of the Cavallino John Elkann.

In this regard, Hamilton, when specifically asked by the press at the end of the Abu Dhabi race, where he was the absolute protagonist, scoring pole and victory, neither confirmed nor denied any chats with the Maranello number one: "Well, of course everything that happens behind closed doors obviously always remains private. But I think for many, many years I never sat down and considered other options. I'm going down the path I'm on, and to be honest, I think there will be very little that will move me from that".

In the event of Hamilton's departure, Mercedes would not be caught unprepared: "I know Toto (Wolff, ed.) it is also examining options for the future. I'm waiting to see what he does. I love where I am, so it's definitely not a quick decision, but obviously I think it's wise to sit down and think about what I want, whether it's for the last period or phase of my career. I actually want to keep winning, I want to keep being able to fight these guys too. I can't say what else will happen going forward".

Speaking of Hamilton-Ferrari, too Charles Leclerc expressed his point of view on a possible arrival of the 44 in Maranello: “Would I welcome him as a teammate? Well, of course - admitted the Monegasque -. We are in Formula 1 and we want to battle against the best. This year I had a great opportunity in having Seb (Vettel, ed.) by my side. I learned a lot from a four-time world champion like him. You can always learn from champions of this caliber".
