Hamilton reveals the disaster behind his troubled Ferrari debut

Hamilton, a two‑time world champion, suffered a high‑speed crash into a wall during a Fiorano test in January 2025, injuring a cervical disc. Medical staff confirmed the damage extended to a nerve, forcing him into nine weeks of intensive physiotherapy, chiropractic sessions and pain‑killer treatment.

The injury severely limited his performance during his 2026 Ferrari debut, resulting in a far‑from‑expected showing. He is now focused on completing his recovery.
