Donald Trump is the only person who can lean on Israel to stop starving people to death in Gaza. Keir Starmer could convince Trump to do that. They're meeting on Monday, so we don't have long to get the PM to act. Add your name to the open letter now: https://t.co/3Ca9niDQND

@SkySportsF1 Max is not a worthy champion. He is not an ambassador for the sport. He is not a role model for young fans and has always been dangerous. His father, Red bull and FIA are all complicit as they have enabled his wreckless behaviour

🚨UPDATE: A miracle, child Haneen Al-Wadiya, the sole survivor of her family after Israel bombed Al-Jarjaoui School in Gaza, was filmed walking through flames ,her body burned, her face in shock.
She suffered 2nd & 3rd degree burns.
Her parents and siblings died under the rubble.
She crawled out wrapped in a blanket.

@SkySportsF1 P3 and quali should be split to half cars on the track. Cars are too big for Monaco. In laps/cool laps will interfere with racing cars and there is no where to go off line at times. When was the last time Car 44 crashed like that?

[karenTuck @Ktuck550]

@oneraceblog @RobLMyers I said that they should stagger the cars for P3 and quali. The cars are just too big for the Monaco track and high speeds achieved with in laps/cool down is just dangerous. I honestly do not remember the last time Lewis crashed like that

[Hamilton Insights @LH44_insights]

🚨 | [Food for thought] : When Lewis Hamilton announced he would be joining Ferrari for the 2025 season, the entire paddock held its breath. You could feel the air shift across the paddock — twelve years after he had left McLaren for an unproven Mercedes project, Lewis Hamilton was once again taking a leap of faith. But this time, he wasn’t the rising star seeking a breakthrough anymore. He was a legend, walking into the most mythologised team in Formula 1 history, a team starved of titles and desperate for resurgence. The symbolism was immense. So were the expectations.

Yet, just like in 2013, the myth had to wait — because the first reality check came not from headlines, but from the car’s limitations.

The SF-25 isn’t slow — but it’s temperamental. Aerodynamic instability, a narrow setup window, and unpredictable behaviour on track have made it a challenge, even for Leclerc, who at times, hasn’t hidden his frustrations. Lewis Hamilton, for his part, has been brutally honest. He’s far from satisfied with his own performance. But true to his reputation, his work ethic has been impeccable. There are no excuses. Just a steady, methodical effort to get better race after race.

After five Grands Prix, the results paint a picture of resilience. He’s scored points in four out of five races. A sprint pole and a sprint win in China reminded the world: the edge is still there, even if the main race didn’t count due to a DSQ. There have been no unforced errors, nor any clash. Just clean, composed racing.

It’s impossible not to draw parallels with his debut season at Mercedes in 2013. Back then, Lewis Hamilton had joined a team with promise but no guarantees. He wasn’t dominant, but he was consistent, strategic, patient. He laid foundations. In 2025, the dynamic feels similar. He isn’t setting the timing screens alight, but he’s doing the job. More importantly, in a championship increasingly dominated by McLaren, Mercedes and Red Bull, he’s helping Ferrari stay in the fight and rack up critical points, or at the very least, making sure they’re not left too far behind.

The parallel with 2013 is tempting, but the contrast tells a richer story. Back then, Hamilton was a bold talent stepping into the unknown, still carving out his legacy. In 2025, he arrives not as a rising star, but as a monument in motion, a driver whose name is already etched in history. What he brings to Ferrari now isn't just experience or pace. It's gravity. It's a sense of direction. He doesn’t need to prove he can win; he’s here to help a legendary team remember how.

So what deserves recognition at this stage? No costly race errors. A sprint pole position in a car that’s notoriously hard to tame. A sprint win that speaks to his instinctive brilliance. A tone that’s candid, self-demanding, but always forward-looking.

He hasn’t dazzled yet. But he’s navigating with poise and intent. No fireworks, just the steady hand of a driver who’s been through it all, the quiet resolve of someone who understands the long game. And perhaps that’s exactly what Ferrari needs. Even Michael Schumacher didn’t conquer the sport overnight. His first season with the Scuderia was marked by flashes of brilliance and spells of frustration — and it took years of graft and belief before the dominance began. Lewis Hamilton knows that rhythm. He’s not here for instant glory. What makes his journey even more complex is that, for the first time in over a decade, he’s having to unlearn everything instinctive — twelve years of reflexes, feedback, and muscle memory shaped by Mercedes machinery. Now, every corner, every braking point, every engine mode feels unfamiliar. It’s not just a new team — it’s a full rewiring. And yet, he shows up, race after race, not with excuses, but with intent. Sometimes, the hardest battles are the ones fought beneath the surface.

As a matter of fact, I fully understand why the sport feels compelled to hold its most decorated driver to the highest standards. He’s HIM after all, THE — Black man — Lewis Hamilton. I also get the perverse delight some of the established punditry, largely made of underachieving former racers, seem to take in watching him wrestle to adapt to his new environment. Looking at you Croft. Looking even harder at you, Brundle. But let’s be clear. Leclerc is a phenomenal talent. Still, his first podium in five races wasn’t earned in a vacuum. It came from a mix of sharp qualifying, smart race execution, and the fact that Lewis held off his most direct threat just long enough for Charles to capitalise. Credit where it’s due, but context matters.

That being said, it is important for me to state that what we’re witnessing isn’t a decline. It’s a recalibration. Hamilton’s 2025 season isn’t about proving he still has it. It’s about showing that greatness evolves. It adapts, rebuilds, and endures. In a sport obsessed with speed, he’s offering something rarer: patience, perspective, and purpose. The results may not yet shine on paper, but the shift is happening — in the garage, in the data, in the culture. And if history has taught me anything, it’s that when Lewis Hamilton begins to build, it’s only a matter of time before the world watches him rise. Ferrari didn’t just sign a champion. They signed a compass.

Survivors of the Telford abuse scandal have criticised Elon Musk’s attack on Jess Phillips, stating she has “devoted her life to fighting for women and girls.”

In a letter shared with the Guardian the seven women, including three survivors of the Telford sexual abuse scandal, came to the Labour MP’s defence and said that there was “no one in public life who has done more to support victims and survivors and to advocate for their interests”.

The other four signatories – Julie Devey, Carole Gould, Emma Ambler and Nour Norris – have lost a female relative to gender-based violence or have suffered domestic abuse.

In their response to Musk, coordinated by the campaign group @KilledWomennw, the women said that those who “weaponise our pain for their own ends or political gain” should “hang their heads in shame”.

“We write as victims of extreme male violence,” the letter said. “What connects us all beyond our shared trauma is the support and kindness we have received from Jess Phillips over many years, personally and as activists fighting for change.

“We know there are those who would weaponise our pain for their own ends or political gain; who speak out with new-found interest, not to tackle the horrendous crimes that stole so much from us, but to further their own agenda. They should hang their heads in shame.

“As campaigners and activists, we fight every day to stop what happened to us or our loved ones happening to anyone else. We stand by Jess, knowing she has devoted her life to fighting for women and girls.”
