A real ordeal. Even in the Mexican GP, vwin by new World Championship leader Lando Norris, Lewis Hamilton was forced to watch others pop the champagne. His teammate Charles Leclerc finished in second place, confirming that the SF-25 had all the makings of a good car on the track.

Unfortunately, once again, the seven-time World Champion failed to achieve the podium finish he has been chasing since his first day at Maranello. With the exception of the Sprint win at the Chinese GP, the Briton is still on zero podiums with Ferrari.

The British driver is still on zero podiums with Ferrari.

This time, his race was affected by a 10-second penalty for his excursion off the track that was not handled in the correct manner (“That’s too many” said Vasseur, the Cavallino’s team principal, as if to help his driver). A penalty that wiped out his excellent chances of finishing in the top three.

.

There are now 20 GPs in which Lewis Hamilton has not finished on the podium (an absolute negative record in Ferrari’s history). There are still four GPs to go before the end of this very complicated season. Four chances to have nothing to celebrate in his first year with the Rossa. Everyone is waiting for the champion’s first roar.
