1997 F1 world champion Jacques Villeneuve warned 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton that he risks losing his credibility at Ferrari amid his difficult st🍨art to the season.

Hamilton’s sꩵtart to the 2025 F1 season hasn’t gone to plan for Ferrari.

Ferrari have scored just one podium in the opening six races and trail McLaren by over 150 points in the F1 constructors’ championship.

Hamilton has generally been out-classed by teammate168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Charles Leclerc.

The seven-time world champion has 🦋shown flashes of brilliance, particularly in sprint races.

Hamilton won the China sprint and finis💧hed third in the Miami sprint race after an inspired strategy call.

However, Saudi Arabia proved to be the low point for Hamilton so far in 2025, leading him to admit it’s lik﷽ely going to be a “painful season”.

Villeneuve believes Hamilton’s openly downbeat a𒐪pproach could result in Ferrari♏ losing trust in him.

“You can hear that Lewis Hamilton is not happy at all,” Villeneuve told 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Vision4Sport. “Charles Leclerc has been stepping up more and moౠre. And you can hear it in Lewis’s comments, ‘I’m sorry’. It’s like Norris, once you start doing this, you’re burnt.

“You lose your credibility, and people lose trust in yo♊u. They think he’s only there for the ri🌃de now.

“That’s not the right image to show to a team like Ferrari, who are so fickle. Ferrari are like a volcano. You need those fireworks. You need the passion, the spark to set things off. If you don’t have the sparks, that’s a problem 🐭at Ferrari. There’s not much time.

“At Mercedes, he was allowed to take his time. Not Ferrari. You need to be up there and bang. The sprint race in China seemed to be the spark. But no fire came out after that. There was ওno dry grass aꦿround to catch fire!”

Hamilton “at a loss”

Hamilton’s poor run of results 🍸isn’t entirely down to him.

Ferrari were out-paced by Williams across the🌞 weekend in Miami.

Alex Albon finished fi🌊fth, two places 🌱ahead of the lead Ferrari of Leclerc in seventh.

Ferrari’s disappointing start to the year has come as a surprise, given that they narro💛wly missed out on the 2024 F1💮 constructors’ championship.

With Ferrari set to introduce upgrades over the 💯coming races, Villeneuve is waiting until Monaco to judge whether Hamilton can get over his cur𓆏rent issues. 

“The key thing for Lewis was to get to Ferrari with a new♋ family and a new energy,”🌃 Villeneuve added.

“Not a carry on of what he had been living at Mercedes, which was relying on him thinking, ‘It will be eas꧒y because 💛I’m so good’.

“That’s not how it works at Ferrari. And it’s really odd. The key point is how it will be once they all get back to Europe. They haven’t had ti𝓀me to take a breather. It’s been a gruesome schedule. He seems to be at a loss for why things aren’t working out for him. Let’s wait until Monaco. Then we will see what happens.”
