Former Formula 1 driver Ralf Schumacher has criticized Lewis Hamilton, comparing the seven-time world champion's conduct to that of notorious gangster Al Capone following incidents during the Mexico City Grand Prix. Schumacher, who now works as a pundit, made the remarks in the aftermath of the race weekend, suggesting Hamilton's actions on and off the track resembled the infamous American crime boss.
The specific incidents that prompted the comparison were not detailed in initial reports, but the accusation adds to ongoing scrutiny of Hamilton's behavior during the 2026 season. Schumacher's comments have sparked debate within the motorsport community, with some defending Hamilton's competitive intensity while others question the appropriateness of the analogy.
