Where is the pre-season hype, the honeymoon weeks, the madness that overshadows everything? The current situation is that there is Charles Leclerc, who squeezes excellent results from an average Scuderia Ferrari every week. And there is Lewis Hamilton...
Who is suffering. More and more, and apart from his only victory in the sprint, he is constantly losing points in the standings - even the young Kimi Antonelli, who was brought in to replace him at Mercedes, is ahead of him. As a result, not only specialists associated with Ferrari began to criticize him, but also friendly media of the reds. Corriere della Sera published an article entitled "From promise to doubt", emphasizing that even in the worst-case scenario, the British fit into the team is more difficult. They add that even debutants such as Oliver Bearman have found their rhythm in a shorter time, and the literally struggling Hamilton, who had difficulty finding himself in Williams, was also able to rise to the challenge in the last race. They believe that this creates an extremely awkward situation in Maranello, not only in a professional sense. Because even the most ardent Hamilton fans are starting to get impatient, and the entire Tifosi is nervous to see a dramatic drop in results.
