Lewis Hamilton risks infamous Ferrari F1 sacking
Lewis Hamilton’s move to Ferrari in 2025 was always expected to be a big draw in Formula 1, and the current narrative surrounding his performance reflects that.
Despite the excitement and anticipation, Hamilton’s start with Ferrari has been seen as somewhat disappointing, with his results placing him behind teammate Charles Leclerc in the championship standings.
Though there have been flashes of promise, such as a sprint pole in China and a podium in Miami, the expectations for the seven-time world champion to perform at a higher level are evident.
Concerns have emerged regarding Hamilton’s relationship with his team, particularly his race engineer, and the Italian media has started to question the success of this high-profile partnership.
As Hamilton navigates the challenges at Ferrari, parallels have been drawn to Alain Prost’s tumultuous time at the team, emphasizing the importance of fostering a positive team dynamic for on-track success.
Until Hamilton’s results show improvement and consistency, the scrutiny and criticism surrounding his performance at Ferrari are likely to persist, keeping the spotlight firmly on the British driver.
