Lewis Hamilton seeks redemption at British Grand Prix
- Lewis Hamilton has not achieved a podium finish in 11 races this season, marking the worst streak in his F1 career.
- He has expressed his desire to change this trend at Silverstone, where he has historically excelled.
- Hamilton's focus is on performing well in front of supportive British fans and ending his podium drought.
In July 2025, Lewis Hamilton returns to Silverstone for the British Grand Prix, aiming to break his first podiumless streak in Formula One. Despite a stellar history at this circuit, winning nine times and being on the podium for 11 consecutive appearances, Hamilton has struggled this season, failing to secure a top-three finish. His performances have left him frustrated, especially after a recent fourth-place finish in Austria where he disagreed with team strategies. Before the race, he expressed mixed hopes about his car's competitiveness against rivals like McLaren, indicating that he feels the pressure of the stagnant period. He remains optimistic, remarking that the British fans could play a crucial role in his performance, hoping to reverse his fortunes this weekend as he prepares for Friday’s events. It’s a significant race for him, given his tumultuous last several months at Ferrari, which has been underscored by challenges in finding the right pace and consistency on the track.
