Ferrari have ‘no choice’ over Hamilton future
According to a report from Italian media, Ferrari has no choice but to support F1 legend Lewis Hamilton, despite his current form.
Hamilton joined Ferrari at the beginning of 2025, aiming for an eighth championship victory after leaving Mercedes.
After 14 rounds, Hamilton is in sixth place, 42 points behind his teammate Charles Leclerc.
Although Hamilton has faced struggles, Ferrari is committed to supporting him due to his strong draw and commercial implications for the team.
Italian media believe that Hamilton’s success or failure will also determine the success or failure of Ferrari’s project.
Hamilton’s debut season with Ferrari has not been as bad as perceived, and the team hopes he can lead them to glory in the future.
The introduction of new regulations in 2026 could provide Hamilton with an opportunity to shine, but ultimately, his fate and Ferrari’s success may rely on his performance and the team’s ability to provide a winning car.
