Overview
- John Elkann praised Ferrari’s mechanics and engineers but said the drivers must “focus on driving and talk less,” citing underperformance despite car gains.
- Both Ferraris failed to finish at Interlagos, with Charles Leclerc eliminated after the Piastri–Antonelli clash and Lewis Hamilton retiring following damage from contact with Franco Colapinto.
- Ferrari slipped to fourth in the constructors’ standings, 36 points behind Mercedes and six behind Red Bull, with three race weekends to go.
- Lewis Hamilton called his first Ferrari season a “nightmare” yet posted “I back my team… I will not give up,” as Charles Leclerc said “only unity can help us” in the final stretch.
- Team principal Fred Vasseur criticised the errors, labelling the result “a disgrace,” as the Scuderia remains winless in 2025 and Hamilton is still without a podium.
