F1, Lewis Hamilton dejected: "I can’t go faster"

Lewis Hamilton, one of Formula 1’s greatest stars, capable of winning seven World Champion titles, has lost his way. Since his arrival at Ferrari, greeted with great enthusiasm, Sir Lewis is living a kind of nightmare.

Also in that Miami, after a class win in the Sprint Race, Lewis Hamilton went back into

oblivion in qualifying. He struggled immensely with his SF-25, so much so that he finished with a very modest 12th place that, in fact, compromises today&#8217s race (scheduled for 10 p.m. Italian time).

“The day had started well, I wanted to make sure I was taking the right steps for the setup. When I work, I can&#8217t go faster anyway. I was a bit unlucky in Q3: I started on used tires and did almost the same time as Leclerc on used tires. Then with the new tires I couldn&#8217t go faster. The tires overheated, the car was totally different from lap to lap: it was really difficult”, his disconsolate words after qualifying.

The Ferrari audience is bewildered. About Lewis Hamilton&#8217s talent there is no doubt but he seems to lack the competitive nastiness that made him famous in his golden years. Certainly the SF-25 is not the best car on the track but Lewis Hamilton cannot be this.
