Lewis Hamilton's F1 resurgence for Ferrari this season is "not ideal" for Ollie Bearman, acknowledged the young British driver currently racing for Haas.
Hamilton's long-term F1 future looked in doubt after an underwhelming debut season in 2025 for the Scuderia, in which he failed to register a podium. However, he earned his first Ferrari win in Barcelona in June and currently sits second in the championship standings, 50 points off leader Kimi Antonelli.
The 41-year-old now looks set to continue racing into 2027, while his teammate Charles Leclerc recently signed a contract extension with the Scuderia.

It means 21-year-old Bearman, who is part of Ferrari's Driver Academy, will have to wait for the potential opportunity to step up, but the Brit insisted his overarching aim in the sport is to drive for the prancing horse in a permanent seat and compete for world championships.
