Lewis Hamilton Issues Devastating Statement as Star Dismissed at Imola Grand Prix
Lewis Hamilton has expressed deep disappointment after a dismal performance with Ferrari during the build-up to Sunday’s Imola Grand Prix. The seven-time world champion, who joined Ferrari in a high-profile move earlier this year, described the weekend as “devastating” following another underwhelming showing on the track.
Hamilton struggled to find pace throughout the practice sessions and was eliminated early in qualifying, leaving him starting far down the grid. The British driver admitted frustration over the team’s ongoing performance issues, which have plagued their 2025 campaign.
“This isn’t the way I imagined this chapter unfolding,” Hamilton said in a statement. “I’m devastated—not just for myself, but for the entire team who’ve worked so hard. We’re all feeling the pressure, and we know this isn’t where Ferrari belongs.”
To compound matters, tensions within the garage appeared to spike after a team member was reportedly dismissed over technical inconsistencies linked to Hamilton’s car setup, though Ferrari has yet to officially comment on the internal decision.
Despite the setbacks, Hamilton vowed to keep fighting: “I’ve been through tough times in this sport before, and I’m not giving up. We’ll regroup and come back stronger.”
Ferrari fans, who had hoped Hamilton’s arrival would signal a return to dominance, will now be watching closely to see how the team responds at one of Formula 1’s most historic circuits.
