Ferrari Tensions Surface: Leclerc Reacts to Hamilton Implications Aft…Read more

Tensions ran high at the Miami Grand Prix as Ferrari team dynamics came under the spotlight following team orders that affected the on-track battle between Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton. With Hamilton set to join Ferrari in 2025, the situation offered a preview of the potential chemistry — or conflict — between the two future teammates.

During the race, Ferrari issued strategic instructions that seemed to favor Leclerc, asking Carlos Sainz to hold position, indirectly affecting Hamilton’s ability to challenge for a better result. While Hamilton is still racing for Mercedes, all eyes were on how the future Ferrari partnership might unfold given the team’s decision-making.

In a post-race interview, Leclerc addressed the situation and didn’t hold back. “I respect Lewis a lot — he’s one of the best in the sport’s history. But on race day, I’m here to do my job, and I trust my team to make the best calls for all of us,” he said. Leclerc’s words made it clear that while he respects Hamilton’s legacy, he’s not planning to take a back seat once they share the same garage.

The incident has fueled speculation about how Ferrari will manage two high-profile drivers in one team. With Hamilton bringing his experience and star power, and Leclerc being the current face of the Scuderia, maintaining harmony could be a challenge.

As the 2025 season approaches, the Miami GP team orders serve as an early glimpse of the power dynamics that could shape Ferrari’s future. For now, Leclerc has made his position clear: he welcomes Hamilton, but he’s not stepping aside. The battle for dominance at Ferrari might just be heating up before it even begins.
