Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc are prominent figures in the world of Formula 1. They were recently the subject of discussion in a blog that delved into the situation at Ferrari. In early February, the Italian team announced a long-term contract with an unnamed individual who will join the team from 2025. Over the years, it became evident that Ferrari favored one driver over the other. Despite Carlos Sainz’s impressive performances with the team, Ferrari made the surprising decision to replace him with the seven-time world champion, to the surprise of Mika Hakkinen.
Hakkinen recently took the opportunity to reflect on the intriguing prospect of Ferrari in 2025. Historically, Charles Leclerc has been the main focus of Ferrari since Sebastian Vettel’s departure in 2020. However, this dynamic is set to change with the arrival of Lewis Hamilton. The expected partnership between the two drivers could potentially lead to an internal power struggle within the team. It will be captivating to witness the development of their relationship in the coming years.
Carlos Sainz’s contract with Ferrari will expire at the end of this season. Despite his strong performances in the second half of last year and in the current season, doubts have arisen within Ferrari regarding the decision to let him go. Formula 1 fans have also begun to speculate about Charles Leclerc’s potential. However, the Monegasque driver remains calm in the face of the situation.
Many believe that Sainz’s impressive performances could put pressure on Leclerc, but that is not the case. Leclerc secured second place in the Australian Grand Prix and clinched a podium finish during the event in Saudi Arabia. Taking all factors into consideration, the upcoming Japanese Grand Prix promises to be an exciting spectacle for both fans and Ferrari.
