Lewis Hamilton’s Explosive Exchange with Ferrari Boss After Miami Grand Prix Drama

In a jaw-dropping revelation, Lewis Hamilton bared it all about a tense confrontation with Ferrari team principal Fred Vasseur following a series of mishaps during the Miami Grand Prix. The seven-time F1 champion disclosed that he had to sternly advise Vasseur to ‘calm down’ after a heated moment with the team during the race.

The drama unfolded when Hamilton, on blistering form with the fastest lap on fresh medium tires, requested to overtake his teammate Charles Leclerc to challenge Mercedes’ Kimi Antonelli. However, Ferrari took a staggering four laps to make the decision, clearly irking the usually composed Hamilton. His sarcastic quip over team radio, “Have a tea break while you’re at it,” highlighted his frustration at the delayed call.

Further adding to the spectacle, Ferrari eventually switched the positions of the two drivers, with Leclerc finishing seventh and Hamilton trailing in eighth place. Hamilton’s cheeky response to engineer Riccardo Adami about letting Carlos Sainz through intensified the tension, hinting at underlying dissatisfaction with his own performance and the SF-25’s pace.

Following the Grand Prix, Hamilton shared that Vasseur visited him to discuss the incidents over the team radio. Recalling the encounter, Hamilton recounted advising Vasseur to relax, emphasizing the high-pressure environment inside the car during races. Despite the tense exchange, Hamilton downplayed the situation, stating, “It was fine.”

The fallout from the race saw Ferrari slipping further down the pecking order in the F1 standings, now locked in a battle for fourth place in the constructors’ championship with Williams. Hamilton’s move to the Maranello outfit was anticipated to elevate their standing in the championship race, but the results thus far have been underwhelming, with Hamilton languishing in seventh in the drivers’ championship.

Vasseur addressed Hamilton’s outburst on team radio, stressing the need for clarity and trust within the team when making critical decisions. The Ferrari boss emphasized the importance of mutual understanding and trust between the drivers and the team in high-pressure situations.

As tensions simmer within the Ferrari camp, all eyes are on Hamilton’s next moves as he strives to turn the tide and propel Ferrari back into contention in the fiercely competitive F1 landscape. The drama and excitement continue to unfold in the world of Formula 1, with Hamilton at the center of a storm that shows no signs of abating.
