We may be attending the worst moment of Lewis Hamilton's sports career. Ferrari's pilot acknowledged in the last Grand Prix of Hungary not to be good enough to take his team to glory. “I am useless, they need to change pilot”admitted the seven times world champion. At the same time, Fernando Alonso reaped his best result of the season With a fifth place.
The rivalry of both pilots has fulfilled in this 2025 Most age with both competing in the Formula 1, although age seems to be treating one better than another. While Hamilton is being systematically beaten by his partner Charles Leclerc in Ferrari, Fernando Alonso is not only planting, but beating Lance Stroll in this second part of the season.
The Asturian He has just turned 44 without showing an apex of loss of performance at the wheel, While Hamilton already has 40 springs and an obvious setback that has led him to be out of the podium throughout the season. In fact, If you do not go up to the drawer in the next four races, Lewis will become the worst debutant pilot in history In the team of Prancing horse.
Fernando Alonso, meanwhile, is more than focused on his career in Formula 1 facing 2026 where there is a change of regulations and where he expects Adrian Newey's designs They return to the head positions. Hamilton, on the other side, has not even confirmed its presence in that year although it has the most expensive contract of the entire competition.
Precisely, Ferrari will be lamenting the fact of having thrown Carlos Sainz to bring Hamilton When the Madrid man obtained many better results than his predecessor and not even the millionaada that Lewis packed monthly. All comparisons go wrong to the British, although perhaps that of Fernando Alonso is the most painful.
Fernando Alonso already portrayed him in 2023
The last time both pilots had competitive or even cars was in 2023 when Fernando left Hamilton an overtaking at Bahrein's Grand Prix. The Asturian would also win the game that season climbing eight times to the podium by only six of the then Mercedes pilot.
The British, with his latest statements, has done nothing but turn on the wick of rumors about his future and remind the fans that Fernando Alonso there is only one. With 44 years, the Asturian It is still one of the best pilots on the grill with a masterful driving and a single -racing reading. Hamilton, on the other hand, is demonstrating that if you do not have the best of the best cars you may not be able to compete at the highest level.
Formula 1 expects more expectant than ever knowing the decision of a Hamilton that, to retire, could cause an unexpected domino effect on the Great circus. No one is able to venture to guess what Ferrari will do, but it is not at all crazy that they can retrace their steps with Carlos Sainz. It would be poetic justice.
