Video summary

I’m Tony Craig, and tonight on F1 Grandstand, we turn the spotlight on Lewis Hamilton’s disastrous season at Ferrari and the scathing commentary from Bernie Ecclestone. Is Hamilton’s F1 career nearing its end? ⸻ 🔍 Show Highlights – Backed by Verified Sources: • Hamilton’s Worst Weekend at Ferrari At the 2025 Hungarian Grand Prix, Hamilton qualified just P12, failed to make Q3, and described himself as “absolutely useless.” That’s eight-time Hungaroring winner Hamilton at his lowest. His teammate Charles Leclerc sealed Ferrari’s first pole of the season.   • Bernie Ecclestone Delivers the Verdict The 94-year-old former F1 chief didn’t hold back: he suggested Hamilton is “tired”, should consider retiring, or at least negotiate an exit from his contract. He even said Hamilton would be “cheating himself” by continuing.  ⸻ 💡 What We Discuss Tonight: • Why Hamilton’s Ferrari debut is failing spectacularly • Is the car at fault—or is Hamilton past his peak? • How serious are Ecclestone’s claims—cheap shot or valid concern? • Could Isack Hadjar or Gabriel Bortoleto, both mentioned by Ecclestone, replace the seven-time champ?   • What this all means for Ferrari’s short-term goals and Hamilton’s legacy ⸻ ✅ Tune In If You Want: • Informed debate on Hamilton’s future • Reaction to one of the most explosive Ferrari storylines of 2025 • Insight into team politics and new driver speculation • Fan predictions: Should Lewis retire, stay, or make a stand? ⸻ 👍 LIKE if you follow real F1 drama 💬 COMMENT your thoughts—is Hamilton finished? 🔔 SUBSCRIBE to F1 Grandstand for smart, verified F1 2025 analysis every week ⸻ #LewisHamilton #F1 #F1News #Formula1 #F12025 #FerrariF1 #BernieEcclestone #HamiltonRetirement #CharlesLeclerc #F1Grandstand #HamiltonCrisis #IsackHadjar #F1DriverMarket #F1Drama
