Hamilton Confident in Ferrari: “We Will Be Title Contenders”

Hamilton Confides in Ferrari’s Potential

Lewis Hamilton has reaffirmed his belief that Ferrari can be a title contender during his time with the team, highlighting that the media often focuses on the negative aspects of the 2025 season. Hamilton, who finished in eighth position in the Singapore Grand Prix, dropped one place due to a penalty for multiple track violations. The driver experienced brake problems in the final stage of the race. His teammate, Charles Leclerc, also faced similar challenges and finished the race in sixth place. This weekend represented another disappointment for Ferrari, who has yet to achieve a victory so far this year. Teams like McLaren, who secured the constructors’ title, Red Bull, and Mercedes have celebrated multiple victories.

Despite the disappointment in Ferrari’s season, the seven-time world champion expressed that the race in Singapore is a demonstration of why he still maintains optimism about the team’s improvement.

I’m focused on the positive aspects of the track. The media headlines only tell one story, one where we don’t do things right or things don’t go as we want. But what I’ve focused on in the last few months is the other story. How this team responds when things go wrong. How we get up and try again.

Hamilton also highlighted the team’s strategy in Singapore, mentioning the problem with the brakes that affected his performance. He stated that the team is working hard to learn from this race and plan for the next one. The driver expressed his pride in the team and his desire to contribute to the results that both the team and the tifosi deserve. He believes in the progress they are making and in the hard work that is dedicated to each race.

Hamilton emphasized that progress alone is not enough and that it is necessary to strive more and improve. He believes that there is much they can achieve together and that, by building on their successes and changing what they need, they will reach their goals. His post began with a reflection on the reaction to the death of his dog Roscoe, a prominent figure on Formula 1 social media. Hamilton shared his feelings of gratitude and remembered the support received after the loss of his pet, highlighting that even in difficult times, there are good things in the world.
