“Another One Bites the Dust”: Fans Blame Bizarre Lewis Hamilton Streak for Mattia Binotto’s Ferrari F1 Exit

Mattia Binotto has officially resigned from Scuderia Ferrari. It could be argued that this news doesn’t come as much of a surprise after the dismal 2022 the team has just had. That being said, Binotto’s resignation has been linked by the fans to a peculiar Lewis Hamilton phenomenon.

Binotto was at the helm of arguably Ferrari’s worst-ever era. All this while, Hamilton ran rampant with two World Championships and a close-fought 2021 battle that ended in defeat at the hands of Red Bull and Max Verstappen. Hamilton and Binotto have never really crossed paths, but as it would appear, the 7x Champion does have a hand in the Italian’s departure.

Hamilton does have a knack for motivational social media posts. The Brit can be seen flaunting his impeccable physique during his routine workouts on his social media handles with a few words of wisdom. But according to fans, this has been the downfall of many paddock regulars.

Binotto being the latest victim, let’s take a look at just a few fan reactions to this conspiracy theory.

But what is the conspiracy theory exactly? Well, apparently, every time Lewis Hamilton has taken to his social media account to post a workout video or a shirtless motivational message, it has then been followed by someone announcing they’re leaving the sport. Coincidence? F1 fans on Twitter don’t think so!
