Hamilton's Bahrain Burden: Can He Deliver Ferrari's Maiden Win of the Season?

The air in the Formula 1® Paddock is filled with anticipation as the circus rolls into Bahrain. While the opening act of the 2025 season has been nothing short of a blockbuster – a dream start boasting three different Grand Prix winners and a fourth claiming victory in a thrilling sprint race – all eyes are now firmly fixed on the scarlet cars of Ferrari. And at the heart of this intense scrutiny is none other than Lewis Hamilton.

Lewis Hamilton's iconic move to the Italian F1® giant has been a massive story in F1®. It felt like a seismic shift that sent excitement and expectation through the motorsport world.

However, after the double Ferrari disqualification in China and some bland racing in Japan, the world is waiting for Ferrari to step up. Rumours up and down the paddock that Ferrari has come to Bahrain with a whole raft of upgrades have again set the tongues wagging that this could be the season's first Ferrari F1® whole race win.

But the narrative extends beyond Ferrari's quest for victory.

The 2025 season has been refreshingly unpredictable. With three different winners in the opening Grand Prix and a fourth in the sprint race, which was won by Lewis Hamilton and Ferrari.

Could Bahrain witness a fifth different victor? 

The close competition suggests it's entirely possible. Teams like McLaren will be looking for a race win in front of their most prominent investors and sponsors, as Bahrain and McLaren consider the Sakhir race their own.

Here at Senate Grand Prix, we've been watching closely as the Bahrain Grand Prix promises to be a captivating chapter in this already thrilling season. Will Lewis Hamilton deliver the complete Ferrari victory and the dream win he has been looking for with the Scuderia race team?
