The seven-time F1 champion Lewis Hamilton has joined the Ferrari outfit this year, but his on-track performance has been pretty average. In her role as an F1 analyst, Patrick gave her views on Hamilton's struggle with his new team.

With 15 rounds completed, the Brit sits sixth in the drivers' championship behind his teammate Charles Leclerc with 109 points. Moreover, the former has yet to get his maiden podium with the team.

A lot has been said about Hamilton's woes within the cockpit of the SF-25, and in line with this, Danica Patrick gave her take during the Miami Grand Prix race weekend back in May. She said, via Crash:

"What’s up with Lewis? I don’t know, but all I can say is that he’s with a new team, and it always takes time to transition into a new team. The baked-in handling of the car, the methods in which they go about doing things, all of this stuff takes time to learn and get familiar with. These weekends happen so fast.

"You have to be so on it, especially in a sprint weekend, which is really saying something as he proved making no changes on the sprint weekend proved to be good, so maybe they overthink things, possibly. That’s very easy to do in racing. Overthinking things can happen."

Lewis Hamilton will be seen out on the Autodromo Nazionale Monza racing circuit during the upcoming FP1 session of the Italian GP.
