Lewis Hamilton Demands Fresh Start From Ferrari With 2026 F1 Car

Formula One champion seven times Lewis Hamilton He stated that he does not want to move any elements of the current SF25 F1 forward to the 2026. Hamilton suggested that Ferrari start developing the new car after a disappointing home race in Silverston.
The British Grand Prix race turned into a sexy race. However, drivers not only had to fight their competitors, but also a wave of rain in the middle of the race that were severely dangerous, prompting Hamilton to broadcast his team about the high danger concerned.
Hamilton started the race in P5 and ended in P4. Despite the completion of the impressive race, one of his best in 2025 so far, he admitted that the SF25 was the most difficult car he was driving in Silverstone. The 40 -year -old indicated how difficult it is to drive, given the high rate of tire degradation. He told the media:
“Yes, a difficult day, I think, for everyone, but this is not the result that I was hoped for.

“It’s the most difficult car I was here, so I just hope to return and enjoy some fun.”
He added:
“Lando had an opportunity in the fifteenth place; and then, I just fought to keep up with it. The tires fell dramatically. The car was incredibly difficult.
“I think in the end I learned a lot today. It is the second time that I drive in this car, and I cannot even express how difficult it is.”
F1 enters a new era of regulations next year, when cars are smaller and lighter. In addition, it will be operated by an equal rate of internal combustion and electric energy. Given the resets of the regulations, Hamilton stated firmly that he will personally sit with the Ferrari design team to ensure that there are no elements from the current car to a 2026 car. He said:
“It is not a car that loves these conditions. But having a lot of data to take it, I mean, for me, I may have to sit with people who design the car for the next year, because there are elements of this car that cannot enter the following year.”
