Andrea Stella is a bit torn about the Lewis Hamilton story: on the one hand, she likes that the seven-time world champion is looking for a new challenge, but as one of his main opponents, he will be trying to spoil the Italians' party. It's clear that he will succeed!
Stella is passionate about the sport, which is also indicated by the fact that, despite being the team leader of her big rival, she was excited to watch Lewis Hamilton's first steps in Ferrari:
"I was watching from the outside and I can safely say that I thought it was a really great debut for Lewis. I'm a Formula 1 fan, having worked for Scuderia Ferrari for a long time, so I can't deny that I was excited to watch it happen. It was sporting history at its best, with a seven-time world champion joining one of the most storied teams in F1."
"It's an amazing story, but there's another aspect to it for me, which Lewis and Ferrari know very well. In the end, what matters is what happens on the track, and they are our opponents. We respect them, we watch them work together with excitement, but we only want one thing: to make their lives as difficult as possible and then to beat them. There's no fairy tale, with the greatest respect, but we're going to break Ferrari's enthusiasm!" - said Andrea Stella with great respect, but even more motivation.
