Lewis Hamilton just dropped Bombshell to Ferrari Team Leader after ‘launches tirade over radio’ for holding him back in front of Charles Leclerc
Lewis Hamilton’s frustration with Ferrari’s strategy has reached a boiling point after a controversial team radio call during the latest Grand Prix.
The seven-time world champion was left fuming when Ferrari instructed him to hold position behind Charles Leclerc, despite feeling he had the pace to challenge for a podium finish.
His post-race comments have sent shockwaves through the paddock, with fans and analysts debating whether Ferrari’s decision cost him valuable points.
Hamilton’s frustration was evident as he questioned the team’s call over the radio, labeling it as “stupid” in a heated exchange. The British driver has struggled to adapt to Ferrari’s SF-25 challenger, and this latest incident has only added to the tension within the team. While Ferrari team principal Fred Vasseur defended the decision, stating it was made to maximize the team’s overall result, Hamilton’s reaction suggests he felt undermined by the strategy.
The controversy has reignited discussions about Ferrari’s internal dynamics, with some speculating that Hamilton’s relationship with the team could be strained if such decisions continue. Meanwhile, Leclerc has remained diplomatic, stating that he trusts the team’s calls but understands Hamilton’s frustration. The incident has also fueled speculation about whether Ferrari will adjust its approach in future races to better accommodate Hamilton’s aggressive racing style.
As the season progresses, all eyes will be on Ferrari to see how they handle their star driver’s concerns. Will Hamilton push for more autonomy in race strategy, or will Ferrari continue to prioritize team orders? One thing is certain—this latest controversy has added another layer of drama to Hamilton’s challenging debut season with Ferrari.
