2025 Scuderia Ferrari F1 Team

Simply put, Hamilton doesn't seem like these tough characters.

As BassVirolla so intelligently puts it, [...]

If you are going to be sarcastic about my intelligence (mods: subtle insulting maybe?) at least stay on topic and please, tell us when Hamilton delivered with subpar machinery.

Not commenting on the strange "mods*" tag... But if you are the one making the assertion that Lewis sometimes didn't put the effort in .. Then please bring the evidence/races/seasons even?

It's fully patronising to ask when someone really started watching/living the F1 life but your question about when Lewis delivered in subpar machinery is really missing the mark

You'll have to remind us, but was it not Lewis that had won a race every season, regardless of the quality of the car, up until a couple years ago (2022)? **

How does that stand up over a fifteen year period? Has anyone else got anywhere close to that, ever? Did he have the best car every year?


* I think he's agreeing with you.. But if you want the mods to look at something then report it.

** I'll go and have a word with myself about the dreaded fanboism (though I'm not a driver person since Ayrton)

Exactly my point. Possibly his worst car until '22 was the 2012 McLaren, and even it finished the campaign in third WCC.

Hamilton has had to deal with little time in the midfield or with the backmarkers.

Never, ever, I will deny that, when in a capable car, Hamilton is among the best. But I think that (better, right?) he lacks motivation when not in the top spots.

Nevertheless, I will not retrieve team radios in which he wanted to retire the car out of thin air or interviews in which he felt like had forgot how to drive fast.

Forgot to point out that they tested a new steering wheel today. People pointed out the shape looks similar to the Hypercar one (the image from the 2nd tweet is of the 499P)





Also both Ham and Lec mentioned bouncing as a big problem after FP2 in their interviews

Agree with your last paragraph. He does seem very down sometimes but maybe he can see that the ability to overcome a vehicle deficit is harder so accepts it. I personally think these cars are devastatingly fast, but terrible to race

Some years though, he had a poor car and it was tough but some days he really did outshine the car.

I think with a sniff of a win he can do it next year.
