A potential problem for Ferrari has been spotted from onboard footage of168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Lewis Hamilton during the F1 Japanese Grand Prix weekend.

Hamilton’s mixed start to l🅠ife at Ferrari continued at the third round of the season in Japan with the seven-time world champion only able to qualify eighth, before finishing 🔴seventh in Sunday’s grand prix.

During Sky Sports F1’s coverage of qualifying, 1997 world champion Jacques Villeneuve noticed something conc𓆉erning about Hamilton’s SF-25.

Commentator David Croft noted: “Looking at the Ferrari, ꧅it’s not got the most stable rear end I would have thought.”

To which, Villeneuve res🔯ponded: “I was about to say, the Ferrari slides a fair amount.

“We’re looking 𒈔at the Ferrari, it’s moving around, sliding around, heating up the tyres. That’s not a g෴ood sign for the longer run.

“You c𝓰ould also tell that [George] Russell had a much tighte📖r line. He would back off a bit so that he could have a tighter exit and get on the gas better.”

Lewis Hamilton highlights issue with Ferrari car

Following the race, Hamilton revealed an element on his Ferrari car is168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: “underperforming” compared to teammate 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Charles Leclerc.

Leclerc enjoyed a better weeken🌜d, qualifying and finishing fourth at Suz💟uka. The Monegasque outpaced Hamilton by three tenths of a second and was 13 seconds clear of Hamilton in the race.

"I did the best I could today. I was genuinely lacking perfo𒅌rmance compared to the cars ahead of me," Hamilton told Sky Sports F1.

"We found something on t🧔he car that was underperforming for the last three races so I am hoping when that is fixed that I will start getting better results. I'm losing just over a tenth a lap with this issue we have. I'm hoping by the next race it's fixed.”

Ferrari are rumoured to have an 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:“inherent” problem with their 2025 chall༒enger and are not running the car as low as they ideally want.

The Italian team were well off the pace at the season-opener in Australia, while both drivers were disqualified fr📖om the Chinese Grand Prix.

Hamilton’s exclusion in Shanghai⛄ was due to🦩 excessive plank wear on his Ferrari.

"They [the team] are aware of it and don't know why [it is happeni✨ng]. When a new component comes, hopefully it will be gone and be the same on both cars," Hamilton add𓆉ed.

"I'm relatively happy with the race pace I had, with what I did have. Otherwise ෴a good performance from the team and they did a good job. Onwards and upwards."
