Lewis Hamilton sends a clear message to his fans – and Ferrari – following the Sao Paulo Grand Prix
Lewis Hamilton faced a challenging Sao Paulo Grand Prix but vowed not to give up after retiring due to damage from two Lap 1 incidents involving Carlos Sainz and Franco Colapinto. The front-wing damage affected the underfloor of his Ferrari, leading to a loss of performance and prompting his retirement from the race. Hamilton had a tough weekend, being knocked out in both qualifying sessions and Ferrari dropping to fourth in the constructors’ championship. Chairman John Elkann advised Hamilton and Charles Leclerc to focus on driving, not talking, amidst the team’s struggles. Despite the difficulties, Hamilton remains determined, expressing his commitment on Instagram to keep pushing forward with Ferrari and not give up on his quest for success. His first year with Ferrari has been challenging, with the SF-25 underperforming since its debut, lacking strengths, and struggling to match the successes of previous Ferrari models. Despite ongoing progress, Hamilton is still seeking his first podium finish with the team.
