Lewis Hamilton took to social media to express deep gratitude to the passionate Tifosi following a challenging Italian Grand Prix for Ferrari.
Hamilton addressed the fans directly, opening his emotional message with, “Grazie Tifosi. We gave it everything but unfortunately it wasn’t enough. Through it all, the support the entire week has been incredible.”
Despite high expectations at their home race, the Scuderia struggled with straight-line speed. Hamilton managed to salvage a sixth-place finish, while teammate Charles Leclerc suffered a high-speed crash into the barriers at the Parabolica on Lap 2, bringing an early end to his afternoon.
Team harmony and relief
Earlier in the race, the two Ferrari drivers engaged in an intense wheel-to-wheel battle on the opening lap. Despite the fierce intra-team fight, Hamilton made sure to express relief that his teammate emerged uninjured from his heavy impact, stating, “I’m glad to see that Charles is ok.”
He reassured fans that the bond across the entire garage remains intact as they continue working to resolve their current pace deficit, adding:
“I’m always in awe of the amount of passion and love we receive. It means so much to me and to the team. We share that passion with you and we will keep pushing together to come back from this.”
A promise to keep fighting
Addressing millions of supporters worldwide, the seven-time World Champion praised the incredible passion shown by the Italian crowd throughout the race weekend.
He pledged that the team is fully committed to relentless progress promising to fight hard to deliver the winning results the Ferrari fanbase truly deserves, declaring:
“We’re committed to progress and greatness and will continue to give it everything we can to deliver the results you all deserve.”
