Lewis Hamilton’s Future at Ferrari in Jeopardy: The Rising Star Set to Take His Place!

The clock is ticking for Lewis Hamilton as whispers of a potential replacement at Ferrari grow louder. The seven-time world champion has faced a tumultuous 2025 season, and if he can’t turn his fortunes around, a seismic shift could be on the horizon for the Scuderia. With all eyes set on the pivotal 2026 season, Hamilton’s partnership with Ferrari is under intense scrutiny, and the pressure is mounting.

At 40 years old, Hamilton is acutely aware that time is not his ally. The 2025 season has been a year of relentless struggles for the Brit, aside from a fleeting highlight during the Chinese GP sprint race. The SF-25 has proven to be a formidable adversary, and as challenges continue to mount, the prospect of a change looms ever larger.

Enter Ollie Bearman, a name that has now emerged as the “obvious” successor to Hamilton should the legendary driver fail to secure the success that Ferrari desperately needs. Former Haas team principal Guenther Steiner has boldly declared Bearman as the natural choice to step into Hamilton’s shoes if the situation does not improve. The 20-year-old rookie has made significant strides throughout the 2025 season, amassing 41 points and securing P13 in the drivers’ standings, showcasing his undeniable talent behind the wheel.

Bearman’s journey has not been without its bumps; however, he has demonstrated resilience and growth, particularly in the second half of the season. Steiner spoke candidly about Bearman’s evolution during a recent appearance on the Red Flags podcast. “I mean this year starting off being fast but making mistakes, but second half of the season he got rid of them, and it’s just like a switch,” he explained.

Initially, Bearman’s penchant for pushing the limits led to several missteps and penalty points, but the young driver turned the tide, managing to fight hard in races without faltering. “He still kept on collecting them in the second half of the season, but he didn’t make mistakes anymore, even in the race, fighting hard,” Steiner noted.

The implications of Bearman’s rising star are profound. If Hamilton cannot deliver the results Ferrari craves, the door could swing wide open for Bearman in 2027. “We all know that he can overtake and as you said, I think for him the door should be open to Ferrari for ’27, because if Lewis hasn’t got the success he needs to have, I don’t think that he continues and then there is the obvious candidate there for Ferrari,” Steiner asserted.

As the F1 world holds its breath, the question remains: Can Hamilton pull off a miraculous turnaround, or will the Scuderia soon be looking to Bearman to lead them into a new era? With tensions rising, the next chapter in this high-stakes drama is poised to unfold—keep your eyes peeled as the Ferrari saga continues!
