Ferrari’s Bold Move Hamilton Leclerc Partnership

Hamilton & Leclerc: Vasseur’s Power Duo

06/06/2024

Ferrari’s bold strategy unites Hamilton and Leclerc, aiming to secure the constructors’ title, despite potential internal competition for the drivers’ championship.

Ferrari will field a dream team from 2025 with Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc.

Two of the best drivers on the grid will be partnered, potentially causing even more concern for Red Bull Racing, which has chosen to retain Sergio Perez, still criticized for his average performances, alongside Max Verstappen.

Without a doubt, Frédéric Vasseur will have a duo capable of contending for the constructors’ title.

But will they not clash when vying for the drivers’ title, with no clear No.1 and No.2 driver? The Frenchman is committed to not adopting the same policy as Red Bull.

“I don’t think so, as the team has a mutual advantage, and we probably score more points with two drivers than with one and a half.”

“It’s a positive evolution in terms of performance, and part of our current success also stems from the good competition between Carlos and Charles – they push each other.”

“As soon as one is slightly behind, the other steps up to deliver results and wakes the first one up. It’s been like that since the beginning of last year.”

“I am genuinely convinced that I prefer having two strong drivers rather than one slightly weaker than the other. Of course, you might consider that with two drivers, the points potential for the team is more appealing than the potential for each of them to win the title.”

“But I am sure that the points potential for the team with two good drivers is much higher than with one and a half. That’s my view.”
