Lewis Hamilton believes Ferrari have every ingredient needed to win the world championship and is more hopeful than ever that he can claim a record eighth crown.

Speaking at length for the first time since he completed his blockbuster transfer from Mercedes – a move which is set to earn the British driver north of £100million across the next two seasons – Hamilton said he has raised every aspect of his game in a bid to write his name into the history books and deliver Ferrari’s first title in nearly two decades.
