Hamilton branded Ferrari failure
Former F1 boss Bernie Ecclestone critiqued Lewis Hamilton’s partnership with Ferrari, calling it a ‘financial marketing project’. With only four races remaining in the 2025 F1 season, Hamilton is at risk of finishing a season without a podium for the first time in his career. Despite showing some improvement in qualifying pace during the US and Mexican grands prix, Hamilton is unlikely to look back on this season favorably. Ecclestone labeled Hamilton’s season a failure and speculated about the champion’s future endeavors, suggesting he may delve more into fashion. However, with potential regulation changes in 2026, Hamilton still has a chance to shape the narrative of his Ferrari tenure.
