Lewis Hamilton in 'happy place' after 'best ever' Ferrari change

Lewis Hamilton, the seven-time Formula 1 champion, has described himself as being in a 'really happy place' at Ferrari following a difficult debut season with the team in which he failed to score a podium and suffered three consecutive Q1 exits. A key change saw race engineer Riccardo Adami replaced by Carlo Santi, Kimi Raikkonen's former engineer, alongside broader internal operational changes at the Maranello factory. Hamilton described the new working environment as the 'best ever' as Ferrari look to close the gap on pace-setters Mercedes in the constructors' standings.
