Italian Fans Turn on Lewis Hamilton After Lackluster Spanish GP Performance

Lewis Hamilton is under growing scrutiny from Ferrari’s passionate supporters following a disappointing result at the Spanish Grand Prix. The seven-time world champion finished in sixth place, a considerable distance behind his teammate Charles Leclerc, who claimed a podium finish. The contrast in performance has sparked frustration among the Tifosi — Ferrari’s fiercely loyal fanbase — with many taking to social media to question whether Hamilton is the right fit for the team.

Hamilton, who joined Ferrari in a highly publicized move that generated global attention, didn’t hold back in his post-race comments. He labeled the weekend “terrible” and expressed doubts about the SF-25’s competitiveness, bluntly stating, “I’m sure they won’t,” when asked if he believed Ferrari could improve. His pessimistic tone has only added to the outrage, especially in Italy, where Ferrari isn’t just a Formula 1 team — it’s a national treasure.

The backlash has been swift. Some Italian fans are already calling for Hamilton to be dropped if his results don’t improve soon. Patience appears to be wearing thin, particularly as Hamilton’s season continues to underwhelm. With no podium finishes to date and a widening gap to Leclerc in the drivers’ standings, critics argue that Hamilton may be doing more harm than good. For some, his presence has become a distraction rather than a catalyst for success.

Despite the growing unrest, Ferrari team principal Frédéric Vasseur remains supportive. He has emphasized that the team is navigating technical difficulties and that both drivers — Hamilton and Leclerc — are essential to Ferrari’s long-term strategy. Vasseur insists the focus is on development and consistency, not short-term reactions to public opinion.

Hamilton, for his part, remains unshaken by the criticism. He acknowledged the backlash but said it serves as motivation, claiming he uses negative feedback as “fuel” to push forward. The veteran driver reiterated his commitment to Ferrari’s project and maintains he’s focused on helping the team return to the top.

Still, with the Formula 1 season nearing its midpoint, tensions are escalating. The early excitement surrounding Hamilton’s arrival in Maranello has been replaced by mounting pressure to deliver results. Unless fortunes change soon, the relationship between Hamilton and Ferrari’s fanbase could grow even more strained.
