It is no overstatement to say 2025 was Lewis Hamilton's annus horribilis, with the seven-time world champion's blockbuster move to Ferrari not exactly going the way he had imagined. Amid struggles with a difficult-to-drive SF-25, a pole-to-flag win in the Chinese Grand Prix sprint turned out to be a false dawn as he went on to record his first-ever campaign without a grand prix podium in his 18-year career. With the dreaded ground-effect cars now in the rearview mirror, can Hamilton bounce back?
A tough first year at Ferrari.
