According to Italian media, Lewis Hamilton’s new race engineer at Ferrari for the 2025 season is rumored to be Riccardo Adami, as reported by Gazzetta dello Sport.
Adami, who previously worked with Sebastian Vettel and Carlos Sainz at Ferrari, is a 51-year-old from Italy and would play a crucial role in Hamilton’s new journey at the team.
While Ferrari has not officially confirmed Adami as Hamilton’s race engineer, it is widely speculated that he will be filling that position, given his experience with high-profile drivers.
Hamilton’s departure from Mercedes meant he needed a new race engineer, as his longtime partner Pete ‘Bono’ Bonnington will remain at Mercedes to work with Hamilton’s replacement, Kimi Antonelli.
Familiar faces for Lewis Hamilton at Ferrari

Hamilton will also have the support of team principal Fred Vasseur, with whom he has a long-standing relationship dating back to their time working together in 2006.
