The Mexico City Grand Prix is a crucial weekend for Ferrari, with F1 champion Lewis Hamilton aiming to prevent further humiliation for the team in 2025 by achieving a strong result.
At the recent US GP, Hamilton broke Didier Pironi’s 43-year-old record for the longest time a Ferrari driver had gone without a podium, reaching 19 races without a finish higher than fourth.
Ferrari faces the potential of hitting another embarrassing milestone as they head to Mexico, depending on the performances of both Hamilton and Charles Leclerc.
Should Ferrari not win the 2025 Mexican GP, it will signify a year since their last F1 victory, which was secured by former driver Carlos Sainz.
Ferrari’s longest winless streak occurred over 59 races, lasting from the 1990 Spanish GP until Gerhard Berger’s triumph in 1994 at Hockenheim.
Despite the pressure to end the winless run, Ferrari remains determined to focus on incremental gains to salvage their 2025 season in the final five rounds of the championship.
