You seem to jump to conclusion. For years have have been heavily criticised for defending Hamilton on this forum when he was winning GPs and championships with some regularity. I like a winner and I think Hamilton deserved all his success. So, I smile when you call me a "hater". But never mind, you are entitled to your opinion. The fact is since the 2021 season, Hamilton is on the decline, and Verstappen has taken over(for the time being). Now Hamilton is cashing on past glory. Nothing wrong with that, His ambition, if you don't know, when he leaves the sport, is to spearhead the foundation he created to help school drop-out youngsters of poor background or ethnic minorities to overcome education failure and to orientate them towards engineering careers, etc ... If you don't believe me, I suggest you Google it. Knowing his career to be near the end, Hamilton offered, through Toto Wolff,to become Mercedes ambassador to finance his scheme. Mercedes said No. John Elkann heard about it, and was interested in the project. I don't think Elkann is under no illusion, but Exor giving money to charities is linked to tax relief. Join the dots, and you will understand.
Even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in awhile He put it in good lap but he got lucky with both McLarens duffing it at the last push. Those cars are much quicker. If they get on their game and the FIA doesn’t intervene they’ll consistently be the team to beat IMO.
Well said. I’m afraid though that’s all way to impartial and level headed for the fanatics. So……. You must be a “hater”!!!!
Hamilton still have some "left over" in him, but it has to be seen if today's brilliance could be repeated over 24 GPS. Good as he was, I don't see a title contender in him. Does that make me a hater ?
Yes! Anyone who doesn’t worship at the feet of Sir GOAT the Messiah and blindly proclaim his glory without question is clearly a mega hater.
No of course not, but whatever he's got left over was (comfortably) more than LeC could put together today. That alone should shut up any and all true haters, but as you know haters gonna hate
Let’s see how it works out when the flag drops tonight. Interesting Charles was told to swap laps at the end of qualifying. That should enough motivation to bring out the dagger this weekend and put himself first. Enough playing nice guy.
Old guy still got it. Ferrari knew exactly what they were doing when they signed a 40 year old has been.

I've been watching Leclerc long enough that in all likelyhood he'll continue to play the nice guy and have a moan at the media after. Champions make actions on track and deal with the BS later.
No matter what Charles wins going home to her. She is an absolutely stunning smoke show. No wonder he loses concentration at times.
So, 2nd race of the season and here are the standings compared to 2024: 2024 - Sainz 14pts - Leclerc 17pts Total points for the race = 31pts Cumulative total after 2 races = 75 pts 2025 - Leclerc 4 pts (sprint) - Hamilton 8 pts (sprint) Both drivers DSQ for the race Total points for the race(sprint) = 12 pts Cumulative total after 2 races = 17 pts
This has to be a mistake?!?! I was told Sir Messiah would redeem the Scuderia and was worth every penny! Maybe this is all part of Elkhan’s brilliant plan?
One of the reasons why slow people are starting to see that Ferrari has 'lost it'. Not just in F1, but the whole brand itself.
@HotShoe isn't wrong......as well as many other FChatters that predicted what's Hamilton's presence at Ferrari really is about. Elkann's master plan and Ferrari's Hamilton merchandise is a hot potatoe. Image Unavailable, Please Login
You have no idea! I predict a very, very long season for any Ferrari/Lewis fan without a good sense of humor.
