Things haven't gone well for Lewis Hamilton so far at Ferrari. Do you guys think that things will turnaround for him after the summer break? If not, do you still see him at Ferrari in 2026?

Personally I think Lewis is just suffering from getting old. He is nearly 40 and is bound to have lost a small amount of speed.
I don't know about anyone else but I am not the driver I was when I was 22. My eyesight is worse, hearing is worse, reactions are much worse, physically slower than I was.
