Lewis Hamilton Breaks Down After Spanish GP Struggles: Ferrari Nightmare Continues

Lewis Hamilton’s challenging season with Ferrari took a painful turn at the Spanish Grand Prix, where emotions reportedly ran high inside and outside the cockpit. According to reports, the seven-time world champion was left distraught following a deeply disappointing sixth-place finish—far from the podium spot he had hoped for. The sight of his teammate Charles Leclerc securing third place and celebrating under the Spanish sun only amplified Hamilton’s frustration.

In what is quickly being labeled the lowest point of Hamilton’s Ferrari stint so far, a late-race incident added salt to the wound. The British driver was overtaken by Nico Hulkenberg in a Sauber—an event that shocked fans and insiders alike. Hulkenberg’s pass was clean and straightforward, showcasing the Sauber’s superior pace at that moment, which caught Hamilton completely off guard and left him unable to respond.

German outlet Bild reported that Hamilton “exploded” with rage over team radio in reaction to the pass. The veteran racer, who joined Ferrari with high hopes of adding an eighth world title to his legacy, was visibly upset by how powerless he felt. It’s understood that Hamilton saw this as a new low in his illustrious career, given the expectations surrounding his highly publicized move to the Italian team.

After the race, Hamilton was seen wiping away tears—an unusual show of raw emotion from a driver known for his composure under pressure. Sources close to the team said he remained quiet and introspective following the race, disappointed not only with the car’s lack of competitiveness but also with his own performance. In post-race interviews, Hamilton shouldered the blame, calling it “the worst race” he had ever driven. His tone suggested that the frustration wasn’t solely aimed at Ferrari’s performance, but also at his inability to turn things around.

Hamilton had entered the weekend with quiet optimism, believing that a podium finish was within reach. However, as the laps unfolded, it became increasingly clear that the SF-25 lacked the pace needed to challenge the front-runners. In stark contrast, Leclerc appeared comfortable and in control, defending well against faster cars and ultimately bringing home a solid third-place finish. That difference in performance between the two Ferrari drivers only further emphasized Hamilton’s difficult weekend.

As the 2025 season continues to unfold, the pressure on Hamilton is intensifying. With each race, the window to challenge for a historic eighth championship appears to be narrowing. Fans and experts alike are now questioning whether his move to Ferrari will bring the fairy-tale ending he hoped for, or if it may instead become a cautionary tale about the risks of switching teams late in a career.

For now, Hamilton and Ferrari will need to regroup and find answers quickly. The emotional toll of Spain is undeniable, but with many races still to come, there remains a chance to rewrite the narrative—if the team can deliver the pace and strategy needed to fight at the front.
