Lewis Hamilton's eighth title dream dealt brutal blow despite stunning Ferrari turnaround

Lewis Hamilton's chances of winning a record eighth Formula 1 world championship have been questioned by former F1 driver Juan Pablo Montoya, despite Hamilton showing a resurgence with Ferrari in the 2026 season. Hamilton won the Barcelona Grand Prix with Ferrari, but Montoya believes the seven-time champion is simply 'comfortable' rather than fully driven to claim another title. Hamilton had joined Ferrari after leaving Mercedes, where he went three years without a world championship.
