Lewis Hamilton “lost” and “stuck in a hole” after tough start to Ferrari F1 career
A brutal verdict from Johnny Herbert ﷺon Lewis꧋ Hamilton

Former F1 driver Johnny Herbert says 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton looks “really lost” and “stuck in a 🌜hole” following his tough start 🐠to his Ferrari career.
Hamilton’s form has been underwhelming si😼nce switching from Mercedes to Ferrari for the 2025 F1 season.
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Charles Leclerc has finished on the podium on three occasions in 2025, while Hamilton has yet to fin🌌🐎ish in the top three.
While Hamilton won the sprint race in Shanghai from pole positi🐎on, he’s generally struggled.
Speaking to , He꧂rbert explained why he💯 thinks Hamilton is “lost”.
“It just looks like Lewis Hamilton is lost, really lost,” Herbert said. “I don’t know if t🥂he raw pace that he’s always had thr🔜oughout his career is there anymore. I thought, with the pure racing skill Hamilton had, he’d be able to drive around any problems with the car but he seems stuck in a hole.
“It’s not nice to see. It’s not the first time we’ve seen it in 🍌the sport, though. Nigel Mansell won his championship in 1992, went to America in 1993, came back in 1994 and it didn’t work anymore for him. It happened with Michael Schumacher too, whe▨n he had his break and came back, then he wasn’t the same Schumacher as before.
“You’re always going to have your peak and an end of your peak. It’s not nice to see. I know Charles Leclerc is not happy with the car either, but at least he’s getting podium finisꦕhes consistently.
“There have been a couple of poor decisions in Ferrari’s strategy and poor co𝓰mmunication over the radio, Hamiltondoesn’t have the synergy꧟ with his engineer that he needs. He hasn’t found his comfort zone since the sprint win in China.”
Ferrari “can’t rely” on Hamilton
With Leclerc taking a lead on-track - and even off it by sa♍crificing qualifying in Spain for💯 a better race result, Herbert feels the team will naturally side with the Monegasque
Herbert added: “Sometimes you don’t realise when it’s not as easy as it ꦯw💦as before, but when you look across the garage and your teammate is outperforming you, then it may click. The greats of the sport, at their peak, get the best out of their car. Max Verstappen is doing it right now. Hamilton just can’t seem to get the extra he needs anymore. He won’t understand why he can’t, because he’ll feel like he should be able to. But, Leclerc is outperforming you in the same car.
“Leclerc is only going to grow and is in control of Ferrari’s future. He’s the guy they can rely on, Ferrari can’t rely on Lewis Hamilton at thi✅s point. It’s horrible to say but it’s the truth.”
