Hamilton denies asking Ferrari to replace staff

Lewis Hamilton has denied claims that he asked Ferrari to replace members of its staff. Multiple outlets reported Hamilton addressing the speculation directly and rejecting suggestions that he had requested team changes.

The reports stemmed in part from Italian media claims that he had been pushing for changes to key on-track personnel. Corriere della Sera did not identify any specific individuals, but said Hamilton had expressed frustration with the execution of recent races.

Hamilton said he had seen the stories and wanted to clear the situation up. His response was a firm denial that he had called for Ferrari staff to be replaced.
