Lewis Hamilton’s Career in Jeopardy as Daniel Ricciardo Makes a Comeback
In a shocking turn of events, Lewis Hamilton’s performance at Ferrari is being questioned, with former Ferrari driver Rene Arnoux highlighting Hamilton’s “handicap” in the F1 2025 season.

Meanwhile, Alpine’s Flavio Briatore has lashed out at the media for creating unnecessary drama around Franco Colapinto, who has been under scrutiny since taking over from Jack Doohan.

In another riveting development, William Oakes, the brother of former Alpine team principal Oliver Oakes, is set to face trial on charges related to ‘criminally-obtained cash’. With Mr. Oakes being granted bail, the legal proceedings are sure to garner significant attention in the F1 community.
