Ferrari’s boss, Fred Vasseur, underlines the errors of Lewis Hamilton during his early dismissal in the Belgian GP SQ

The director of the Ferrari team, Frederic Vasseurv, reviews the two “errors” of Lewis Hamilton during the Sprint qualification session of the Belgian Grand Prix of the F1 2025. Hamilton faced a major locking of the rear wheel during her last sequence in SQ1, which made him turn in the runoff entering the last corner.

It was a rare show to see. Although the front tires lock is quite common with F1 drivers, doing the same with the rear is often considered a recruit error. But when Hamilton did the same, it was rather shocking. He remained stuck at P18, from where he will start the sprint tomorrow.

By revising the session, the director of the Ferrari team, Frederic Vasseur, called Hamilton for his two “errors”. The first took place during a previous round of the session when the track was covered with gravel and dust of a driver who goes out.

“Regarding the first error, I think it was distracted by Tsunoda passing by dust, because you can clearly see a big cloud in the on board images,” said Vasseur.

“As for the second error, I think it was a little too aggressive on the brakes,” he added.

While Vasseur seemed to blame Hamilton for the problem, the initiate F1 Anthony Davidson had a different perspective.

The F1 analyst alludes to the question with the car after the disappointing session of Lewis Hamilton

Lewis Hamilton was apparently discouraged after the Sprint qualification session. However, Anthony Davidson was rather surprised that he blamed himself on himself. Speaking on the sky,, He mentioned that there was a very small chance that Hamilton could have moved on the bias of the car in the back, which would have caused the locking.

“They will clearly see that there was the rear lock, and it is quite difficult for a driver to provoke this, unless you were a little carefree and that you have launched your braking bias too far at the rear,” he said.

Davidson also mentioned that there were not many things that Lewis Hamilton could have done, also suggesting a problem with the car itself.

“There are very few drivers in these digital cars that they drive. They are not very analog these days.

While Lewis Hamilton will pilot the SF-25 from P18 tomorrow, his teammate, Charles Leclerc, will start from P4. He had a much more comfortable session around the Spa-Francorchamps circuit and seemed to have extracted the most from the car.
