Lewis Hamilton told to stay away from Ferrari F1 assistance tool used by team-mate

Lewis Hamilton revealed at the Canadian Grand Prix that he has stepped back from using Ferrari's simulator, explaining that he used it every week in 2024 but found the experience counterproductive, as set-ups that worked in the sim often did not translate to the real track. An F1 pundit has since urged Hamilton to avoid the tool altogether following his performance at the Canadian Grand Prix. Hamilton contrasted his approach with younger drivers like Charles Leclerc, who grew up relying on simulator technology.
