Ferrari lived a nightmare in the Netherlands: double abandonment

Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc were red -raised after not being able to finish in Zandvoort, 15th date of the World Cup.

The boreal summer holidays passed and Ferrari recharged batteries to arrive with new brios to the second part of the 2025 season of Formula 1. Charp a little difficult and, if possible, get a triumph, were the objectives set in Maranello. But if the arrival at the break had been on low, The restart was even worse: double abandonment in the GP of the Netherlands, 15th date of the World Cup.

Could anything else happen? Yes, the two broken cars took. For different reasons, it is true, but both Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc ended up with their SF-25 against the wall. First it was English, the pompous hiring that the Italian brand made by 2025. The heptacampeon comes from a fallen layer, very fallen. So much that in Hungary he himself became “a complete useless”, after the classification of the Hungary GP, in which he was 12, while the Monegasco enjoyed pole. With recharged batteries, he arrived in Zandvoort, but everything was over in the 22nd lap, how much he crashed into the wall in the third curvethe same in which Lance Stroll destroyed his Aston Martin on Friday.

“I lost the back and that was all,” said Lewis, who, in his last track image, already out of his Ferrari, lifted the remains of the front wing. “I can count on the fingers of one hand as many times as I made such a mistake in my career. I am sad for the team. We wanted to add those points for the team today, and sincerely I felt that I had the rhythm of the cars that were going, so I hoped to see real progress in the race and that was what happened, “he added.

With Hamilton out of combat, the hopes of the Scuderia were put in Leclerc, the only one in the Team that climbed to the podium in 2025 (five times). But … he met Kimi Antonelli. The young pilot of Mercedes had a very good start in his first F1 season, but from Emilia-Romagna onwards, just the career of his house, he made several mistakes and only with the third place in Canada saved his clothes. The silver arrow corridor directly took Leclerc’s race.

The Monegasco stopped in boxes and when he left he met Kimi in the… Curve 3. Leclerc, more speed, surpassed him and went for the upper part of the Peralte. Antonelli, below, went against the Ferrari and directly crashed her. Charles entered Trompo, hit the wall and there it was. Literally there he stayed, because he saw the last 20 laps sitting in the grass, sent messages from his mobile phone. “It was a Kimi mistake. On this track you have to be very aggressive to pass cars and he tried to be. I would not describe it as a rookie error. I think it is a mistake that the first or fifth year can occur,” said the Rossa pilot.

Ferrari did not suffer a double abandonment in the race from the Canada 2024 GP (Motor problems for Leclerc and Sainz accident). ANDThis year went with double zero of China’s long race, but for the disqualification of both cars in the technique. George Russell’s fourth position left Mercedes only 12 Ferrari points in the construction table, in which, for now, the Italians are in the second place. In this panorama, the Scuderia will arrive at the race of her house, in Monza, next weekend.
