F1 NEWS: Hamilton-Ferrari Partnership Under Strain as Team Boss Resigns After…read more
Lewis Hamilton’s highly anticipated move to Ferrari is already showing signs of unraveling, with fresh reports from Italy suggesting the seven-time world champion could be heading into a crisis just six races into the 2025 Formula 1 season.
The situation has escalated following the unexpected resignation of Ferrari Team Principal Frédéric Vasseur, a key figure behind Hamilton’s decision to join the Scuderia. Vasseur, who played a pivotal role in luring Hamilton away from Mercedes, reportedly stepped down due to mounting internal pressures and disagreements over the team’s direction.
Hamilton’s debut season in red has so far failed to live up to expectations. Despite the excitement that surrounded his arrival in Maranello, results on track have been disappointing. Aside from a sprint race win in China, Hamilton has consistently trailed teammate Charles Leclerc and has yet to mount a serious challenge for podium finishes.
Italian media outlets are now reporting that the leadership shake-up at Ferrari has left Hamilton increasingly isolated and uncertain about the team’s trajectory. Sources close to the team suggest that communication issues, performance frustrations, and behind-the-scenes instability have begun to take their toll.
The combination of poor results and Vasseur’s departure has sparked concern that Hamilton’s Ferrari dream could turn into a nightmare unless significant improvements are made both in car performance and team cohesion.
While neither Ferrari nor Hamilton have publicly commented on the internal unrest, the timing of the leadership exit combined with a wave of fan criticism and disappointing poll results paints a troubling picture for the rest of the season.
All eyes will now be on Ferrari as they prepare for the upcoming European rounds, with pressure mounting to stabilize the team and get Hamilton’s campaign back on track before the situation deteriorates further.
