Lewis Hamilton has struggled for form throughout the 2025 F1 season, and the Mercedes ex-world champion has suggested he could be set for a change of scenery after the summer break.

Former F1 supremo Bernie Ecclestone has suggested that Lewis Hamilton should offer to step aside at Ferrari, provided the Italian constructor coughs up the remainder of his reported £120million contract. The Brit has suffered two brutal race weekends in succession, battering his confidence heading into the summer break.

Martin Brundle believes Lewis Hamilton is in a “difficult place personally” after a difficult start to his Ferrari F1 career. After winning six world titles and spending 12 years at Mercedes, Hamilton moved to Ferrari ahead of the 2025 campaign, targeting a historic eighth world championship this year.
