Ferrari Faces Imola Penalty as Shock Hamilton Admission Rocks F1
The 2025 Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix weekend at Imola has erupted into controversy, with Ferrari under investigation by the FIA for an alleged tire pressure violation. The Italian team, racing on home soil, is facing a potential grid penalty or fine, depending on the outcome of the FIA’s inquiry. According to initial reports, the tire pressures on Charles Leclerc’s car were found to be below the mandated minimum during Friday’s practice session—a breach of regulations aimed at ensuring safety and fair competition.
This shocking development has cast a shadow over what was supposed to be a celebratory home race for the Scuderia, especially after strong performances in the opening rounds of the 2025 season.
Adding fuel to the fire, Lewis Hamilton—who joined Ferrari this season in a sensational switch from Mercedes—made a candid admission during a press conference. The seven-time world champion confessed to “struggling more than expected” to adapt to Ferrari’s car and operations. “It’s been a learning curve,” Hamilton said. “There’s immense passion and talent here, but we’re not quite where we want to be. I take responsibility as much as anyone.”
The combination of technical controversy and internal challenges is creating an intense atmosphere around Ferrari just as they were hoping to mount a serious title challenge. Fans and pundits are watching closely to see how the team responds under pressure—both on track and behind the scenes.
Stay tuned as the FIA prepares to release its final findings, and as Ferrari faces what could be a pivotal moment in its 2025 campaign.
