Sky Sports F1 commentator Harry Benjamin highlighted the stark emotional contrast between 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lewis Hamilton and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Charles Leclerc following the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix.

Fe🍌rrari hit back from a double Q2 elimination to come away with two cars finishing inside the top six.

ꩵHamilton scored his best result of the 2025 F1 seaso💃n, finishing fourth.

Leclerc finished sixth after the timing of the Virtual Safꦿety Car and Safety Car didn’t play into his han꧟ds.

After the race, Hamilton was pos🌱itive abo⛎ut the progress he’s made in recent races.

On the other hand, Leclerc was de🦹jected by Ferrari’s lack of performance relative to McLaren and Red Bull.

Speaking on the latest episode of the , Benjamin noticed a clear difference between Hamilton and L🌠eclerc.

“I think he will be buoyed by that and optimistic and take that forwardꦅ,” Benjamin said.

“I think Hamilton is happier, especially after Miami actually where we had all those amazing bits of team radio and you think he’d be absolutely fuming after the race but he wasn’t. He was fairly chipper but that’s what he alluded to. I think🐼 he’s just quite happy with the fact he’s closing that gap and on par with Charles Leclerc in terms of outright pace in that Ferrari.

“The next problem will be now they need to make that car back into a podium𒆙 or race-winning challenger. That’s where Hamilton is taking his confidence from at the moment.

“Charles Leclerc seems incredibly despondent - the complete opposite side of the spectrum compared to Hamilton. Bringing that kind of energy isn’t going to help Leclerc at his home weekend either for🦂 Monaco.”

Ferrari’s disappointing 2025 season

Ferrari finished last year as McLaren’s closes𒁃t challenger, finishing just 14 points off in the constructors’ championship.

This year, Fe꧑rrari are already 165 po🧜ints off after just seven races.

The Scuderia have🌠 just one podium to their name, with Leclerc finishing thi🌃rd in Saudi Arabia.

While low-speed performance was their strength last year, allowing Leclerc to win his home ♍race in Monaco, it’s been a wea﷽kness in 2025.

Assessing Ferrari as a whole, Benjamin𓃲 added: “It’s a bit erratic from Ferrari in terms of the car they’ve brought this year.They were good in slow-speed last year and a twist of fate, and it’s changed up again.

“They’re trying to maybe pin a bit on this technical directive change for Spain🧔 but come on. It’s not what Ferrari should be doing. At the end of last year, they were w𝓀ithin a shot of the constructors’ championship with McLaren.

“They were theoretically the second-best team at the end of last year. They sho🍌uld have flown out the blocks at the beginning of the season like McLaren did.”&nb𒁏sp;
