The emotions inside Ferrari’s two garages are removed from similar. On one aspect, there’s Charles Leclerc, who managed to convey house Ferrari’s first podium of the season in Jeddah; on the opposite, Lewis Hamilton, who appears unable to discover a manner out of a really sophisticated begin to 2025.
The Briton, apart from his Dash Race win in China, is just not snug with the SF-25, and the fluctuating performances in qualifying and races are clear proof of it. Even final yr, the quantity 44 struggled to search out efficiency on a single lap, solely to recuperate through the race. This sample has repeated itself within the first 5 races of this championship, highlighting how Hamilton’s adaptation course of at Ferrari is proving harder than anticipated.
Lewis Hamilton on the decline?
In his normal end-of-weekend commentary on the Motorsport.com YouTube channel, Gian Carlo Minardi commented on Ferrari’s present scenario. “Leclerc had a incredible race and managed to maintain Lando Norris behind. He managed the medium tyres very nicely within the first a part of the race, and that made the distinction within the ultimate outcome. Hamilton, other than serving to Charles Leclerc in his duel with Norris, had a really nameless race. I see him struggling quite a bit. Whenever you change group and dealing strategies, it’s not simple, and Ferrari is mentally very aggravating. At Mercedes, he was at house, and I hope he’s not in his decline part. He appeared extra like a driver who doesn’t know the place to place his arms than a ‘washed-up’ one. You’ll be able to see it as a result of within the race he alternates moments the place he goes quick and others the place he struggles; he merely is just not answerable for the automobile,” stated the Italian entrepreneur.
“There may be quite a lot of work to be completed at Ferrari, and the hole to the highest continues to be vital. They should assist the drivers, and I hope that at Imola they are going to convey the updates wanted to shut the hole to McLaren,” Minardi added.
