Lewis Hamilton’s Ferrari experience is off to a rocky start in 2025! 🚗💥 The seven-time F1 champion joined the iconic Italian team with high hopes, but the season’s been anything but smooth. Despite an unexpected sprint race victory in China, the podium’s remained out of reach through 14 grand prix races. 😬
Word from the paddock is that a massive 90% of Ferrari’s crew wasn’t thrilled about Hamilton’s signing. Arturo Merzario, a former Ferrari driver from the ’70s, has called Hamilton’s arrival a “commercial operation,” suggesting Lewis doesn’t feel the love or support he needs from the team. 🏁
The tension hit boiling point in Hungary, where Hamilton, overshadowed by team-mate Charles Leclerc, slammed himself as “useless” after only qualifying 12th, while Leclerc snagged an unlikely pole. After finishing in the same spot during the race, Lewis hinted at behind-the-scenes drama, fueling rumours of a split with Ferrari. 😱
But don’t count Hamilton out just yet. Merzario believes the Brit’s got plenty of fight left, suggesting a future team switch could be the fresh start he needs. After all, Hamilton’s talent and passion for racing haven’t hit the pit stop! His career might just take a thrilling turn next. 💪🔄
What do you think? Is Hamilton’s time at Ferrari just a bump in the road, or is a new chapter on the horizon? 🏎️💨
