Lewis Hamilton ‘Figuring’ out How to Fight for Pole Position With Ferrari

Lewis Hamilton is having one of the worst seasons in his F1 career. The seven-time world champion’s debut campaign with Ferrari has been far from expectations, with a lack of results on-track. Things have become so disappointing that Hamilton has admitted that he doesn’t remember how to fight for pole position anymore.

The British driver has failed to get desired results since he joined the Italian team. In the first eight races, Lewis Hamilton has never really seemed to have a chance at victory, apart from a sprint win in China. The situation within the team has become worse as well. After the Monaco GP, Hamilton was allegedly treated with radio silence by Ferrari. Though, the team has clarified over the situation.

During media day at the Spanish GP, Lewis Hamilton was asked about what it takes to pull off a perfect lap for pole position. The 40-year-old gave a brutally honest answer. Hamilton confessed that it had been so long since he took pole, that he doesn’t even remember. So much so, that the Ferrari star is now trying to figure out how to end his pole-less streak.

I don’t know. I haven’t done it in a long time – it’s just the truth. I haven’t done it for so long so I’m trying to figure that out myself.

These comments are shocking for fans. Lewis Hamilton holds the record for the most pole positions in the history of Formula 1 with 104. Though, it indeed has been a while since the Briton accomplished such a feat. Hamilton’s last pole position came at the 2023 Hungarian GP.
