We are just hours away from the start of the 2025 F1 season and the first free practice session of the Australian Grand Prix. For one person, it will undoubtedly be the most unique experience of their life, and that is Lewis Hamilton.
Given the situation, many of us would think that Hamilton had a lot of pressure on his shoulders, but he tried to dispel those doubts:
"I think throughout my career the pressure I put on myself has always been ten times greater than anything that has come at me from the outside. So I can safely say that now it's not the others who are really putting pressure on me. I have huge expectations of myself: I know what I can do, I know how I can achieve results. I just need to put in the work, put my head down and work. I came to Australia with positive feelings, I'm open and receptive, let's see what rhythm we can get into, what vibes we can get into.
Yes, I'm still learning how the new car works. The truth is that it is completely different from the racing machines I've been able to drive so far. The Mercedes engine is completely different from the Ferrari drive, different feelings, different vibrations take over me behind the wheel. That's how this stable works: it works completely differently." - how, we'll find out live soon.
