Former F1 driver Johnny Herbert believes Ferrari’s SF-25 car characteristics have allowed168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Lewis Hamilton to ‘settle in very quickly’ following ཧpre-season testing i𒈔n Bahrain.

Hamilton was in actio𒅌n last week across the three days of winter testing at the Bahrain Internatജional Circuit.

The seven-time world champion looked comfortable on tr꧋ack, even if Ferrari didn’t grab the headline times during testing.

Hamilton's next appearance i𓆉n the Ferrari will be at next weekend’s Australian Grand Prix, the first race of the 2025 F1 season.

Speaking to , 💝Herbert explained why he’s confident Hamilton will be better suited to this year’s Ferrari.

“He settled in very quickly. When you’re at the level that Lewis h🅷as been for ma𒐪ny years, it doesn’t take long to settle in,” Herbert said.

“That’s what he’s ﷺshowing at the present time. The car itself looks pretty driveable.

“I think it looks more like what Lewis has always been after. He always likes a very sharp front end. And that was something tha𒆙t they struggled with, a bit of understeer with the Mercedes.

“It looks as ifꦍ the Ferrari has a little bit more of a sharper front end, which is only going to benefit Lewis in his campaign to get that eighth title. And I think it’s very, very possible for♏ that to happen.”

Ferrari expected to be behind McLaren in Australia

♌He𝄹ading into the season-opener in Melbourne, McLaren are expected to be the team to beat.

Lando Norris’ race simulation on day two of pre-season testing caught the att﷽ention of the paddock.

Norris was, on average, around 0.6s quicker than 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Charles Leclerc and168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Andrea Kimi Antonelli, 🦋who were completing race simulations at a similar time on day🤡 two.

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Oscar Piastri backed this up on day three, who was approximately 0.3s quicker than 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:George Russell during the race runs.

The✃ usual testing caveats remain, though, wi🥀th the unusually cooler Bahrain conditions and uncertainty about which power modes teams were running.
