Where is the pre-season hype, the honeymoon, the madness that overshadows everything? The current situation is that there is a Charles Leclerc who is pulling off excellent performances week after week from an average Scuderia Ferrari. And there is Lewis Hamilton...
Who suffers. More and more, and with the exception of his only sprint victory, he is constantly falling in the points standings - even the young Kimi Antonelli, who was transferred to Mercedes, is overtaking him. And as a result, not only specialists close to Ferrari, but also the media friendly to the reds have begun to criticize Hamilton. "From promise to doubt" published an article on this topic in Corriere della Sera, emphasizing that the integration of the Briton is going more difficult than in the darkest scenario imagined. They add that even novice drivers, such as Oliver Bearman, have managed to adapt faster, and Hamilton, who has suffered a lot, has had difficulty finding his place at Williams, and his predecessor Carlos Sainz managed to cope with the challenge in the last race. According to them, this creates an extremely embarrassing situation at Maranello, and not only in a professional sense. Even Hamilton's most ardent fans are getting impatient, and the entire Tifosi is nervous about the visibly poor performance.
