From Hero to Zero: Lewis Hamilton's Darkest Hour at Ferrari

24 Nov 2025

Description

Lewis Hamilton BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Lewis Hamilton finds himself at what many are describing as the lowest ebb of his legendary career after a disastrous weekend at the Las Vegas Grand Prix. Headlines across the globe are talking about Hamilton’s first season with Ferrari as the “worst ever” in his almost two-decade-long F1 stint, with Sky Sports reporting that the seven-time champion left Vegas despondent after posting the slowest qualifying time of his life, starting at the very back of the grid, and ultimately finishing eighth only after both McLarens were disqualified. Hamilton himself told journalists, “I feel terrible. It’s been the worst season ever and no matter how much I try, it just keeps getting worse. I’m trying everything in and out of the car.” He added that he took “zero” satisfaction from his recovery drive in Sin City, even though he gained nine places, reflecting to RacingNews365 that it was “the most meaningless nine places, it doesn't mean anything... nothing positive to take.” There is real concern about Ferrari’s performance with Hamilton openly admitting, “With my performance, we’re done” for the year in the Constructors’ Championship chase.His mood hasn’t improved off track either. According to RaceFans, Hamilton bluntly admitted he’s “not looking forward” to next season, even as he says he’s eager for this one to end. Despite these remarks, Hamilton continues to stress his loyalty and commitment to Ferrari, telling Italian media that the whole team motivates each other and that “every challenge is an opportunity.” He’s also brushed aside suggestions of friction with Ferrari chairman John Elkann over the team’s struggles. Motorsport Week and RacingNews365 confirmed that Hamilton’s recent social media declarations of faith in Ferrari and support for the squad were not veiled rebuttals to the chairman’s pointed advice for drivers to “talk less,” with Hamilton joking he would gladly do less media and emphasizing his ongoing regular conversations with Elkann.There’s been little in the way of new business moves, though sources like Ruby Powers Law are still cataloguing his investments, such as his “X44” clothing line, as major prongs in his expanding business portfolio. Social media has been abuzz with sympathetic fans voicing support as well as a fair measure of speculation about his state of mind, but Hamilton has steered clear of feeding the rumor mill directly, instead insisting he is fully committed to Ferrari’s future and growth. For now, the big story is all about lost pace and fading optimism, with the F1 world watching closely to see whether Hamilton, ever the fighter, can find a way to flip this low point into his next dramatic comeback.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI
