After a complicated 2025, where he suffered his first season without podiums in nearly two decades of racing, Hamilton reflected on how his family, friends, and followers were fundamental to his recovery. “I really feel that my fans rescued me last year,” Hamilton commented, emphasizing the importance of his community during moments of doubt.
The British driver received encouraging messages from many of his followers, including shouts reminding him of his greatness. “Several fans told me ‘don’t forget who you are,’ and that resonated deeply with me. I had to ask myself how to find my center to keep moving forward,” he added.
Additionally, Hamilton also thanked the work done by his team and commented on the improvements that have been made to put the car in a good direction. “We have worked a lot on the development of the vehicle and there is still a long way to go,” the driver said.
With Hamilton occupying the second position in the drivers’ championship, the question of whether he will fight to achieve an eighth world title arises with each victory. Referring to this possibility, Hamilton stated that despite his difficult start, he is not focusing on the idea of a new title, but rather on winning each race.
At the same time, he acknowledged that it is too early to think about the championship battle. “I am focused on enjoying every moment and enjoying the race,” he added, highlighting the effort and innovation that his new equipment has brought to the season.
With high expectations for the next race, Ferrari is about to introduce improvements to the engine, along with a new fuel specification, aimed at extracting superior performance. The road ahead promises to be exciting for Hamilton and the team, who is looking to maintain their position as solid competitors in the championship.
