Lewis Hamilton is being accused of living a double life, and some claim it’s hurting his performance once he’s back on track.
The British driver once again finds himself making headlines away from the circuit. This time, the voice comes from Ferrari. A former Scuderia driver has gone public and accused Lewis Hamilton of leading a double life that directly impacts his results.
A shocking statement about Hamilton and his double life
Ivan Capelli, a former Ferrari driver, has shaken the paddock with bold comments aimed at Hamilton. According to him, the seven-time world champion is no longer the same. Capelli also insists that Hamilton is leading a double life, and this contrast is weighing heavily on his performances.
In his words, the Brit remains a radiant superstar off the track, but transforms completely once he gets behind the wheel. Capelli was clear: Hamilton, who maintains this double life, can no longer find solutions to his ongoing struggles. A direct criticism that’s causing a stir, especially with the championship resuming soon.

Ferrari hopes for a quick turnaround
At Ferrari, expectations around Hamilton are sky-high. The team hopes he can turn the page after a disappointing first half of the season. Hamilton himself admitted that changes were needed, even going as far as criticizing his team after the Hungarian Grand Prix.
The return to action at the Dutch Grand Prix is going to be a turning point. Ferrari wants to see Hamilton recover his smile and hunger, instead of letting the shadow of a double life. Confidence will be key as the Scuderia approaches a second half of the season that already feels decisive.

Pressure builds ahead of the second half of the season
Now, Hamilton must deliver on the track. Capelli’s harsh words add to the growing frustration among Tifosi, who are desperate to see wins again. The British driver no longer carries the same aura he once had, when he could single-handedly lift his team in tough moments.
This tension-filled season will be a real test for Hamilton’s future at Ferrari. If he continues to oscillate between global superstar and inconsistent driver, the debate around his double life will only grow louder.
