Ferrari Chief Drops Bombshell on Lewis Hamilton’s Title Hopes at F1 Bahrain Grand Prix 2025
In a shocking revelation, Ferrari’s Fred Vasseur has dashed the hopes of Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc by admitting that the upgrades for the F1 2025 Bahrain Grand Prix will not work any miracles for the struggling team. Despite identifying fundamental issues with the car, Ferrari has had a disastrous start to the season, including a double desqualificação em Xangai.
Vasseur disclosed that Ferrari is still três décimos behind top competitors McLaren and Red Bull, with no quick fixes in sight. The team is working on updates to address balance problems and maximize the car’s potential, but Vasseur emphasized that competitiveness will be a gradual process, not an overnight transformation.
The upcoming upgrades aim to widen the car’s set-up options and improve performance on different tracks. One key focus is resolving the ride height issue that has plagued Ferrari, leading to complications in generating downforce. The team has had to raise the floor to prevent damage, impacting their overall performance.
Hamilton, who has been vocal about the car’s shortcomings, expressed frustration over the lack of rear-end performance during the Japanese GP. With Ferrari’s struggles persisting, the pressure is mounting on the team to deliver tangible improvements for the Bahrain race.
As Ferrari grapples with internal challenges and fierce competition, the road to redemption seems arduous. Will Hamilton’s title aspirations survive the Bahrain Grand Prix, or is Ferrari destined for further disappointment in the 2025 season? The stakes have never been higher as the legendary team fights to reclaim its former glory on the F1 circuit.
