Lewis Hamilton has delivered a word of caution to McLaren despite the constructors’ champion’s strong start to the F1 season.
Lewis Hamilton believes McLaren’s current pace advantage in F1 is not “insurmountable”, but doubts Ferrari can close the gap significantly. Despite his move to Scuderia, the British driver does not expect his former team to struggle at the front of the grid. Ferrari nearly ended their title drought last season, coming just 14 points behind McLaren in the championship battle. However, the SF-25 has not met expectations, making a championship fight unlikely this year. Hamilton has faced difficulties at Ferrari, only able to aim for consistent points with occasional better showings in sprint races.
