Ferrari’s recent radio communications with Lewis Hamilton have raised eyebrows among fans and analysts, highlighting possible issues with engineering coordination and race strategy. If Ferrari does not take immediate action to address these concerns, the performance of both Hamilton and the team could suffer even more in future races.

Several recent exchanges between Hamilton and his race engineer, Riccardo Adami, suggest a lack of clear, timely, and relevant information being provided during crucial moments. In one instance, Hamilton expressed confusion, saying, “I don’t know the race situation, mate!” followed by frustration over “sporadic info” as he was instructed to pit. After rejoining the race in P5, Hamilton again had to ask basic but critical questions such as who was ahead, who was behind, and what his position was—information that should have been relayed promptly without request.

In another exchange, Hamilton asked if he was still a minute behind, to which Adami initially avoided giving a direct answer. Only after a second attempt did he clarify with “48 seconds.” This sort of delay can be frustrating and can undermine a driver’s confidence in the pit wall.

After finishing in P5, Hamilton asked Adami directly, “Are you upset with me or something?”, a rare and telling question that hints at tension or miscommunication within the team. Hamilton is known for being calm and composed on radio, so such a remark signals a deeper issue.

Ferrari must address these communication breakdowns before they begin to seriously affect race results and team morale. Ensuring Hamilton gets consistent, clear updates and strategic support is critical—not only for his performance but also for maintaining trust between driver and engineer. If not resolved, this situation could compromise their competitiveness in a season that leaves no room for such missteps.
