Lewis Hamilton has predicted that the remainder of the 2025 F1 season with Ferrari will b🐲e “painful” following a disappointing Saudi Araꦍbian Grand Prix.

Hamilton finished in seventh place at the Jeddah Corniche Circuit, over 30 seconds behind Ferrari teammate168澳洲5最新开奖结果: Charles Leclerc.

The seven-time🎃 world champion was𒐪 well off the pace all weekend, qualifying 0.6s behind Leclerc on Saturday.

This weekend was reminiscent of his final year at Mercedes, with Hamilton incredibly downbe🐓at when speaking to the media after the race.

Looking ahead to Miami and the rest꧅ of the season, Hamilton has no confidence that things will improve.

“I think I’ll struggle also in Miami,”🐠 Hamilton said, as quoted by . “I don’t know how much longer I’ll struggle for, but it’s definitely painful.”

“At the moment there’s no fix. So, this is how it’s ✅g൩oing to be for the rest of the year. It’s going to be painful.”

Hamilton was once aga🐲in completely out-classed by Leclerc, who scoౠred Ferrari’s first podium of the year.

Hamilton admitted that wh🌟ile their car setups are slightly different, he’s simply going slower t♒hrough the corners than Leclerc.

“He’s been driving this car for a long time, so he definitely knows it reaꦡlly well. There’s plenty in the data, for sure,” Hamilton explained.

“I mean, h꧑onestly, like, it doesn’t look massively different in the data. Just… I go slowꦛer through the corners. We do have slightly different setups, I have to look and see whether that setup is the way the car likes to be.

“Yeah, him and his side are definitely obviously doing a bette🧸r job.”

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lewis Hamilton “tried everything” to go quicker

Hamilton was mystified by his lack of pace in the race, revealing that he “tried everything” to go quicke🐟r.

Unlike in other races, such as Bahrain, where he showed solid race pace, Hamilton’s Suꦍnday performance was also nowhere.

“Nothing positive from today,” Hamilton said. “Except for Charles finishing on the podium, which is great for the team. It ♊was horrible. It was horrible. Not enjoyable at all. I was jus🌞t sliding around.

“First stꦍint, massivꩵe understeer, car not turning. And then massive deg. And then the second stint, slightly better balance, but still just no pace. Yeah, pretty bad.”

He added: “Struggling to feel the car underneath me. But there’s no particular thing. There’s nothing to s🎉ay ‘hey, this is the issue’.

“In qualifying it’s me extr🍬acting performance. In the race today, I tried everything, and the car just didn’t want to go quicker.”
