The Rise & Fall of Lewis Hamilton. 

This week on 2 Soft Compounds, we're dedicating the whole podcast to Lewis Hamilton who's dream Ferrari move is rapidly becoming a nightmare. Hosts Rick and Paul, alongside special guest Damian Reid, unpack the worrying signs surrounding the seven-time world champ: from his puzzling form slump to cryptic comments questioning whether he’ll even see out the season. Has the sport’s most dominant driver finally hit the wall?

The guys dive into what’s really going wrong - is it age, car setup or just a culture shock inside Maranello? They explore the eerie parallels with Michael Schumacher’s late-career move to Mercedes and why history may be repeating itself with another legend lost in the wrong red.

Plus, a brutally honest take on whether Hamilton and Ferrari ever made sense competitively… or whether this was just a stock-boosting PR fantasy that’s now unravelling in real time.

Is it the end of an era? Or just a bump in the road? Hit play to find out and don’t forget to follow us @2softcompounds on Instagram.
