Hamilton & Ferrari: A Match Made for F1 Glory or a Risky to big?

Lewis Hamilton’s Ferrari Crash: What Happened & What It Really Means

The Lewis Hamilton-Ferrari partnership is undoubtedly the biggest story heading into the 2025 Formula 1 season. But will it deliver the dominance fans dream of, or will it become just another “what could have been” moment in Ferrari’s long and storied history?

One man who isn’t doubting Hamilton’s ability to succeed in red is Juan Pablo Montoya. The former F1 driver believes that once Hamilton clears his adjustment phase, he’ll be unstoppable.

“Lewis is mature enough to appreciate that in the short-term he is going to struggle a little bit, learning the Ferrari thing,” Montoya admitted.

But here’s the key—Montoya doesn’t think that struggle will last long.

“After about six or seven races, if Ferrari gives him the car, Lewis is going to win everything.”

That’s a bold claim. But is Montoya right?


Hamilton’s Challenge: Can He Adapt to Ferrari’s Way of Racing?

For the first time since 2013, Hamilton will be in an entirely new environment. Ferrari’s way of doing things is different—culturally, structurally, and even politically. The team is known for its internal power struggles and the intense pressure from the Tifosi.

Hamilton has spent the last eleven seasons at Mercedes, where he was the undisputed leader with a team built around him. At Ferrari, he steps into Charles Leclerc’s home turf, and their internal dynamics will be a major talking point all season.

Ferrari team principal Frédéric Vasseur must manage this partnership flawlessly if they want to avoid another Rosberg-Hamilton-style battle.


Ferrari’s 2025 Car: Will It Be Good Enough?

Ferrari made massive strides in 2024, nearly overtaking McLaren in the Constructors’ Championship. But a disastrous upgrade mid-season brought back porpoising issues, derailing their momentum.

The good news? They fixed those problems by the end of the season and have a clearer direction for 2025.

The bad news? Red Bull, McLaren, and Mercedes will all be working just as hard, meaning Ferrari can’t afford any missteps.

If the SF-25 (Ferrari’s 2025 car) is a title contender from race one, Montoya’s prediction could come true.

If not? Hamilton will have limited patience—and Ferrari’s notoriously political atmosphere could turn volatile.


Hamilton’s Age: Advantage or Concern?

At 40 years old, Hamilton is older than most of his title rivals. Some question whether he can maintain his peak performance for an entire season.

But let’s be honest—Fernando Alonso is still performing at an elite level at 43. If Ferrari gives Hamilton the right car, his age won’t be an issue.

Montoya agrees. His view is simple:

If Ferrari delivers, Hamilton wins.

It’s not about age—it’s about the car.


Can Ferrari & Hamilton Deliver F1’s Biggest Comeback Story?

The expectations are sky-high. Ferrari fans are dreaming of their first title since 2007, while Hamilton has his eyes on that historic eighth championship.

But expectations are one thing—execution is another.

The first big test? The Australian Grand Prix. If Hamilton and Ferrari show immediate pace, the F1 world will be on notice.

If they struggle? The pressure will mount quickly.

One thing’s for sure—this partnership will define F1’s 2025 season.
