The British Grand Prix was a tough one for Ferrari as they lost out on major points despite having strong pace throughout the weekend. Many factors affected their race. Hamilton finished his home race in P4, meanwhile, his teammate Charles Leclerc was well out of points. Hamilton had the pace to clinch the podium, but the weather and strategies did not play to his side as Nico Hulkenberg finished within the top three for the first time in his career.

Lewis Hamilton on the SF-25 at Silverstone: "Most difficult car"

Hamilton hasn't had a good time in his first season with Ferrari so far. He has largely struggled with the car. Although he seemed pretty much comfortable in Austria and the first two days at Silverstone after the floor upgrade, he lacked confidence once again during the race.

Speaking to the media after the end of the 2025 British Grand Prix, Lewis Hamilton remarked that the SF-25 was the "most difficult" car to drive at the track in his career. He also blamed the weather for the same, stating that he has only had two outings racing in the wet.

"It's the most difficult car I've driven here in a few years. I just struggled to keep up. The tyres dropped off massively. The car was unbelievably tricky to drive. Ultimately, I learned a lot today. It's only my second time driving in the wet in this car. I can't even express to you how hard it is," Hamilton said.

"It's not a car that likes those conditions. But having lots of data to take from this… for me, it will be nice to sit down with the people that designed the car for this year, because there's elements of this car that no one else can look to," he added.

There is seemingly a lot to improve at Ferrari. A new suspension upgrade is expected at Spa during the Belgian Grand Prix weekend. It has so far been a disappointing season for both Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc. Despite their best efforts, the team keeps bouncing on and off from the second spot in the Constructors' standings.
