Lewis Hamilton has been hit with two major blows ahead of the 2026 Formula 1 season after a reported double departure.

Hamilton, 41, will be looking to put his debut difficulties behind him when he hits the track in 2026.

During what was a tough first season with the Scuderia, Hamilton failed to score a podium finish.

In the end, the seven-time world champion was convincingly beaten by Charles Leclerc, who finished 86 points ahead of the Brit.

Looking ahead to 2026, Hamilton will be looking for much-improved performances and will have to rely on Ferrari getting things right on the SF-26.

However, it has now been claimed that the Brit has been hit with a double blow, with two of his team said to be leaving.

According to a report by the Daily Mail, Hamilton has 'parted company with Marc Hynes'.

Hynes, who is a former British Formula Three champion, oversaw Hamilton's racing logistics at Ferrari.

He was also believed to be the chief executive of 'Project 44' from 2015 to 2021.

The report claimed that Hynes is set to join F1 debutants Cadillac in a new role.

Meanwhile, The Times' Molly Hudson stated that Hamilton's press officer, named Ella, has also departed the team.

Last month, it was reported that Hamilton's race engineer, Riccardo Adami, had been moved to a new role within the Scuderia.

A statement read: "Scuderia Ferrari HP announces that Riccardo Adami has moved to a new role within the Scuderia Ferrari Driver Academy as Scuderia Ferrari Driver Academy and Test Previous Cars Manager, where his extensive trackside experience and Formula 1 expertise contributes to the development of future talent and to strengthening performance culture across the program.

"Scuderia Ferrari HP would like to thank Riccardo for his commitment and contribution to his trackside role and wishes him every success in his new position. The appointment of the new Race Engineer for car #44 will be announced in due course."
