F1 fans offer Lewis Hamilton hope after troubled Ferrari start
04/27/2025 10:40 AM
A majority of F1 fans believe Lewis Hamilton will turn around his Ferrari blues - but must be given until the summer break to do so, according to the results of a RacingNews365. Hamilton claimed pole and victory in the Chinese Grand Prix Sprint race, but since then, his form and confidence in the SF-25 have plummeted, with a particularly downbeat seven-time champion claiming that the "pain" could last for the rest of the season. A Hamilton grand prix victory - his 106th - in 2025 would make him the first driver to win for three constructors' since Sebastian Vettel added Ferrari to his own CV in 2015 after victories for Toro Rosso and Red Bull. As Hamilton struggles to adapt, he is on 31 points from five races, and with increasing qualifying deficits to team-mate Charles Leclerc as he battles car balance issues and getting up to speed with the Ferrari power unit systems, boss Fred Vasseur has given him his emphatic "2000%" backing. And F1 fans who voted in a RacingNews365 poll believe Hamilton will be back on form, but must be given until the summer break to settle into the Scuderia before he is judged. Presented with the three options laid out in the results table below, 50.85% of those who voted believe Hamilton should be given until the August shutdown to get on top of the SF-25. A total of 14.85% believe he will get up to speed, but that it will come next year in the regulations reset coming, whilst 34.30% believe Hamilton has entered a new reality of no longer fighting for wins and titles. When will Lewis Hamilton turn around his Ferrari form?
