James Hinchcliffe认为刘易斯·汉密尔顿与法拉利的2026年F1总冠军希望已经结束
前IndyCar系列赛车手、F1 TV评论员James Hinchcliffe在西班牙大奖赛代价高昂的退赛后宣布，刘易斯·汉密尔顿与法拉利的2026年F1总冠军希望已经"结束"。
这位七届世界冠军在全新的马德里赛道赛道遭遇刹车问题。因此，他现在在积分榜上落后领跑者安东内利 101分，落后第二名乔治·拉塞尔20分。
法拉利目前在车队积分榜上排名第二，但已落后梅赛德斯145分。
在F1 Nation播客节目中，Hinchcliffe被问及是否认为汉密尔顿和马拉内罗车队已经退出冠军争夺。
"是的，当然，"他说。"他们会有闪光时刻，他们会赢下一些比赛。我很想看到他们在年底前再赢下一两场大奖赛，但你说的是落后超过三场大奖赛的积分，对刘易斯来说甚至是四场。"
随着冠军渐行渐远，Hinchcliffe建议法拉利将重心转向2027赛季会更有益。
"结束了。已经结束了。现在是时候为'27年努力了，"他补充道。"他们不必担心维持冠军争夺的压力。他们可以在每个比赛周末，也许在调校上、在缺乏测试的情况下带到赛道的研发上，稍微更具实验性，对吧？"
"如果这是15年前、20年前，你有了这套新规则，车手们难以驾驭，车队们试图追赶那支搞明白的车队，你会在每场大奖赛之间每周都进行测试并努力改进。"
"你现在没有这种自由。模拟器能做的有限。你唯一接触赛车的时间就是在比赛周末，而那时比赛至关重要，很难把这段时间用来做实验和真正承担额外风险，无论是驾驶、调校更改还是其他什么。"
"当你退出冠军争夺时，就像法拉利现在这样，你就可以让自己几乎把这些比赛周末视为测试周末。"

Lewis Hamilton and Ferrari 2026 F1 title hopes are "over", says James Hinchcliffe
James Hinchcliffe believes Lewis Hamilton and Ferrari’s 2026 F1 championship hopes are over
Former IndyCar Series driver and F1 TV pundit James Hinchcliffe has declared Lewis Hamilton and Ferrari's 2026 Formula 1 championship hopes "over" following a costly retirement at the Spanish Grand Prix.
The seven-time champion suffered a brake issue at the brand-new Madring circuit. As a result, he now sits 101 points behind championship leader Kimi Antonelli in the standings and 20 points behind George Russell in second.
Ferrari currently sits second in the constructors' championship but is now 145 points behind Mercedes.
Speaking on the F1 Nation podcast, Hinchcliffe was asked if he thought Hamilton and the Maranello outfit were out of the championship fight.
"Yes, certainly," he said. "They'll have flashes, they'll have races. I'd love to see them win another grand prix or two before the end of the year, but you're talking about over three grands prix worth of points behind, well four for Lewis."
With the championship slipping away, Hinchcliffe suggested that it would be beneficial for Ferrari to shift its focus to its 2027 campaign.
"It's done. It's over. Now it's about working on '27," he added. "They don't have to worry about the pressure of keeping a championship fight alive. They can go to each race weekend, maybe be a little bit more experimental with set-ups, with developments they're bringing to the track in the absence of testing, right?
"If this was 15 years ago, 20 years ago, and you had this new set of regulations and drivers were struggling to drive them and teams were trying to catch the one team that figured it out, you'd be pounding around testing every week in between every grand prix and working on it.
"You don't have that freedom now. Simulators can only do so much. And your only time in the race car is when it matters on race weekends, which is a tough thing to use as a time to be experimental and to really take extra risks, whether it's with driving, with set-up changes, whatever.
"When you are out of the championship fight, as is Ferrari, then you can resign yourself to almost looking at these race weekends as test weekends."
