Ross Brawn has shared his thoughts on Lewis Hamilton’s difficult first season driving for Ferrari. The respected former team boss offered his perspective on why Hamilton has not yet found his rhythm with the Italian team.
Brawn, who once led Ferrari’s technical department, is no stranger to the pressures of competing at the top level. His experience guiding the team through its dominant era with Michael Schumacher gives weight to his assessment.
He noted that Hamilton’s adaptation to Ferrari machinery has been slower than expected. According to Brawn, switching teams late in a driver’s career can expose fresh challenges, even for a seven-time world champion.
Brawn also highlighted the difference in working styles between Mercedes and Ferrari. He believes Hamilton is still adjusting to the culture, processes, and engineering approach of his new team.
Despite the struggles, Brawn remains optimistic. He said Hamilton’s talent and determination could still turn things around once Ferrari unlocks the right performance window for him.
