Hamilton deemed 'immature' during Ferrari disputes - Schumacher

      "Conditions at Ferrari are tense."

      Ralf Schumacher has commented on the escalating tensions within Ferrari, criticizing Lewis Hamilton for his "immature" conduct towards teammate Charles Leclerc. While Max Verstappen secured a victory in a GT3 race at the Nurburgring during the Formula 1 break, seven-time world champion Hamilton missed a Pirelli tire test as he kept watch over his ailing dog; however, he asserted on social media that he was actually skipping a Milan fashion event.

      Red Bull's Dr. Helmut Marko couldn't resist making a remark regarding Verstappen’s "dedication" to racing. "You know, the others attend some sort of, I don't know, fashion show or something," he stated to Viaplay.

      Hamilton, having faced challenges in his debut season at Ferrari, is now facing fresh criticism from former F1 driver Schumacher as well. "Conditions at Ferrari are tense," Schumacher said on Sky Deutschland.

      "Charles (Leclerc) allowed Lewis to pass him with fresh tires in Baku so he could make a move. Ultimately, they were supposed to switch positions back. But Hamilton didn't do that because he clearly didn’t care.

      "He was fully aware of his actions," the German claimed. "I find that unfortunate, as he often portrays himself as a champion of fairness. Hamilton acted immaturely. And Charles, of course, is disappointed. This issue won’t be resolved easily."

      The six-time grand prix winner cautioned that the current dynamic could undermine the team managed by Frederic Vasseur. "Everyone is thinking their own way, and that can quickly damage a team. If there’s no trust among team members, it becomes problematic. Ultimately, the Ferrari brand is what matters most," Schumacher concluded.
