Lewis Hamilton shifting blame at Ferrari as ‘magic’ wears off
Lewis Hamilton’s struggles at Ferrari have led to him deflecting blame for his poor performances, as he adjusts to the realization that he can no longer consistently produce magic on the track. Since moving from Mercedes, the seven-time world champion has yet to mount the podium in 2025 and currently sits in sixth place in the drivers’ championship, trailing team-mate Charles Leclerc. Italian F1 journalist Giorgio Terruzzi noted that Hamilton seems unwilling to accept enough responsibility for his subpar results and has shifted the focus elsewhere within the team. Hamilton’s despondency has been evident, culminating in a disappointing Hungarian GP outing where he deemed himself ‘useless’. As he seeks to turn his fortunes around, the Brit is on a break before the F1 season resumes at the end of the month in Zandvoort.
