Hamilton has endured a rough couple of seasons with Mercedes since the Silver Arrows last won the constructors' championship in 2021, despite displaying moments of brilliance his fans have come to know and love.

His final race at Silverstone with Mercedes saw Hamilton secure a glorious home victory earlier this year, with team principal Toto Wolff branding the performance as a 'fairytale'.

With two more wins under his belt this season, critics began to question if the 39-year-old's move to Maranello was the right decision after Mercedes began to look competitive once again.

Hamilton's own brand set for Ferrari sponsor

Ahead of the 39-year-old's switch to Ferrari, F1 journalist Joe Saward claims it could be Hamilton's own company that will sponsor him in the scarlet machinery.

Saward claims to have attended every grand prix since 1988 and following the Singapore GP, revealed in his latest installment of 'green notebook' that a rumour surrounding Hamilton had been circling the paddock.

Saward's blog claimed: “One interesting rumour in the Singapore paddock was that Lewis Hamilton might end up sponsoring himself at Ferrari.

“The goal of the alliance with Pernod Ricard was to use the French firm for global distribution and to tap into its experience in building up new brands.

Saward concluded: “The word is that Almave might be signed as a Ferrari sponsor next year.”
