Oliver Bearman has built a strong case for promotion to Ferrari, though Lewis Hamilton’s strong early-season form complicates the timing.

Ferrari advisor Ayao Komatsu urged the team to find a way to bring the 20-year-old out of Haas for 2027, citing his rapid progress since his full-time debut in 2025.

Bearman said he was ready for podiums and wins, telling reporters “I am ready to drive for Ferrari” and reiterating a long-term goal to “put on a red suit,” after recording three top-eight finishes across two grands prix and a sprint to open the season, including P7 in Australia and a P5 in China that was his best result to date.
