Is Lewis Hamilton really in free fall?
'Lewis is in free fall, isn't he?' That was a message I'd received this week from a friend, who is a staunch Hamilton supporter. The timing was interesting, as moments before, an email had dropped containing the comments from former F1 driver-turned-pundit Johnny Herbert, who is rapidly becoming Mr Rent-A-Quote on all manner of subjects, with his remarks freely available to use as a source for stories (in exchange for plugging betting websites). Advertisement In essence, Herbert's point was that Lewis Hamilton had lost his way with Ferrari and that the Italian team would be better to throw all its weight behind Charles Leclerc, who at 13 years younger, should be considered the team's future. It is a fair assessment, and came after Hamilton had finished sixth, courtesy of Max Verstappen's penalty in the Spanish GP; otherwise, it would have been seventh, while Leclerc had taken another podium finish.

That is some unwelcome accolade, given it was his 365th F1 race. With each race, it is becoming increasingly difficult to ignore the growing frustration he is experiencing as he adjusts to the new surroundings following his switch from Mercedes in the winter. Advertisement Hamilton's commitment cannot be questioned. He is spending time at Ferrari's Maranello factory and staying well into the night during F1 GP weekends, digging into the data in the hope of finding elements that, as yet, have been missing. Those missing elements remain unknown to the sender of the text message, or indeed perhaps Herbert too, but those working close to him can see his determined work in a relentless quest for an uptick in performance and results.

Advertisement The win in the sprint race in China, as was the happiness he expressed in the post-race media sessions at Imola, have both proved to be false dawns, and even, as is the case with the person who sent the message, the most passionate Hamilton fan must now be fearing the worst. Perhaps we should not be surprised. Like Hamilton, fellow F1 world champions Alain Prost, Fernando Alonso, and Sebastian Vettel all arrived at F1's most famous team with the hope that it would herald another title — only for that not to prove the case. So why is it not working for Hamilton? The situation is complicated, and there is not one single factor that is obvious. At the start of the season, Ferrari's problems stemmed from set-up, with ride height being a factor. Indeed, Hamilton was disqualified from the Chinese GP due to a worn plank as his car was set up too low to the ground. Advertisement Then there is Hamilton's fondness for an F1 car that is set up to be stiff - again compromised by the softer rear suspension set up, which has prevented him from getting it dialled in. Furthermore, the upgrades were slow to arrive in the early part of the season as Mercedes and Red Bull both benefitted from new parts. Poor strategy has been a frequent problem for Ferrari, and this has not been helped by Hamilton being required to forge a new relationship with his race engineer - and dealing with the language barrier. The significance of the cultural shift that comes with moving from a UK team to one based in Italy cannot also be underestimated. It was always going to take time for Hamilton to adjust, but to take Herbert's point, at 40, time in F1 is not something Hamilton has an abundance of. Lewis Hamilton, Ferrari Lewis Hamilton, Ferrari Peter Fox / Getty Images Peter Fox / Getty Images Advertisement It looks bleak, and perhaps to the outsider, looks like Hamilton is in free fall. His demeanour and comments in Barcelona are backed up by miserable race results, which means he's placed sixth in the drivers' championship — some 23 points behind his team-mate. Plus, history tells us that Ferrari does not usually offer a happy ending to the careers of F1 world champions. However, Hamilton's switch to Ferrari was never about this season, but for preparation for the new regulations that come in 2026, in the hope of one roll of the dice for the record-breaking eighth world title his glittering career deserves. Even the most fervent of Hamilton fans are having to dig deep, and some, like Herbert, are starting to question if it will happen. Is this really the beginning of the end, which will see him turfed out of the back door of a sport he has dominated? I absolutely hope not, but the reality is, we don't know.

Lewis Hamilton Says He'd Race for Free: ‘Don't Tell My Boss'
Lewis Hamilton Says He'd Race for Free: 'Don't Tell My Boss' originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Lewis Hamilton may be one of the highest-paid drivers in F1, but on race day in Barcelona, the seven-time world champion admitted something that floored even his most loyal fans. Advertisement Speaking at a Ferrari paddock club event before the Spanish Grand Prix, Hamilton reflected on his career, passion for racing, and his ongoing journey with Ferrari, and dropped a heartfelt line that immediately turned heads. 'I love my job the same as I did at the beginning,' Hamilton said with a grin. 'And don't tell my boss, I'd do it for free. Fortunately, I don't have to.' It was a candid moment that spoke volumes. Now in his first season with Ferrari, Hamilton has made it clear that his motivation comes from something deeper than money or trophies. With almost two decades in the sport, he remains energized by the daily grind and challenge of elite racing. Lewis Hamilton after finishing third during the Miami Grand Prix Sprint Navarro-Imagn Images 'It's a real privilege,' he said. 'There's only 20 of us in the world out of 8 or 9 billion that get to do this.' Advertisement But Hamilton also acknowledged the emotional rollercoaster of the job, especially during difficult seasons. 'There's a love-hate relationship when you're not succeeding,' he admitted. 'But you have to remember it's all part of the journey.' He likened his new chapter with Ferrari to climbing a mountain from its base determined to rebuild and reach the summit again. 'We're at the lower part of the mountain,' he said. 'And we're building up to get back to the top. That's what I'm working on.' Hamilton's words struck a chord with fans, reminding many why he remains one of the most beloved and resilient figures in the sport.

Lewis Hamilton Sends Clear Message to Ferrari After Disappointing Spanish GP
Lewis Hamilton Sends Clear Message to Ferrari After Disappointing Spanish GP originally appeared on Athlon Sports. After a frustrating outing at the Spanish Grand Prix, Lewis Hamilton has made it clear that Ferrari's true focus should now shift towards 2026. Advertisement While the seven-time world champion continues to adjust to life at Maranello, he isn't holding back when it comes to identifying what needs improvement and setting long-term goals. Hamilton acknowledged that this season is more about laying groundwork than immediate results. 'In Maranello, we have a fantastic simulator,' he said. 'But since I arrived, I have suggested pages and pages of things that I believed needed improvement. And we are working on it; we are continuously working to improve and the guys have already made progress.' Hamilton emphasized that Ferrari's technical strength, particularly in wind tunnel correlation, are far ahead of what he's seen at other teams. Still, the message was clear: the real breakthrough won't come in 2025, but in the years beyond. Lewis Hamilton after finishing third in the 2025 Miami Grand Prix Sprint Casey-Imagn Images 'I will soon tell the team that it will be time to focus on the next year,' he said. 'This season is about building a foundation, getting to know the tools, in terms of structure and processes, and refining them so that when we reach 2026, we will have the machine we really want.' Advertisement The comments come on the heels of a difficult Spanish GP weekend, where Ferrari once again struggled to match the race pace of Mclaren. While fans may hope for podiums and victories in 2025, Hamilton appears more focused on reshaping the team's infrastructure and unlocking long-term potential. It's a bold and strategic mindset and a reminder that while 2025 may be a building year, Hamilton is already targeting a title win with Ferrari when the next era begins in 2026.
