Lewis Hamilton Confident of Winning Eighth Title with Ferrari After SF-25 Debut

Charles Leclerc Welcomes Lewis Hamilton to Ferrari, Calls His Arrival a “Big Boost” for Team

As Ferrari begins its 2025 Formula 1 season with renewed hope, Charles Leclerc has praised the timing of Lewis Hamilton’s arrival, calling it a “big boost” for the team. Speaking after his first outings with Hamilton in Ferrari’s new SF-25, Leclerc emphasized how Hamilton’s leadership and calm demeanor under pressure align perfectly with Ferrari’s current direction.

Hamilton’s decision to join Ferrari after years of dominance at Mercedes has captured the attention of the motorsport world. As Ferrari aims to end its lengthy championship drought, Leclerc believes that the presence of a seven-time world champion like Hamilton could be just what the team needs to take the next step.

“I think Lewis is coming into the team at the right time,” Leclerc said during a media interaction. “Fred (Vasseur) has a very big strength in keeping the emotional level of the team at a very good level. We’ve been much more solid in that aspect over the past few years.”

Leclerc’s comments reflect Ferrari’s ongoing efforts to stabilize its team culture and refine its focus, with Vasseur’s leadership ensuring a calm and clear path forward. Hamilton’s arrival, Leclerc admits, has further energized the team, and they are already benefiting from his wealth of experience and success.

Learning from Hamilton

For Leclerc, one of the biggest perks of having Hamilton as a teammate is the opportunity to learn directly from one of Formula 1’s greatest drivers. Over their first few weeks together, Leclerc has already begun observing Hamilton’s approach to racing, paying close attention to his comments and work with engineers.

“It’s always very interesting with a new teammate, especially when it’s Lewis Hamilton,” Leclerc explained. “He’s achieved so much, and it’s cool for me to analyze how he works day-to-day with his engineers. What are the comments he makes, and what does he pay attention to?”

Despite not yet sharing the same track time in the SF-25, Leclerc has started to notice similarities between his own and Hamilton’s driving styles. This early insight into Hamilton’s approach will be invaluable as the two aim to push Ferrari back to the top.

“We have a very good relationship, and we’ve spent a lot of time together. I can’t wait to start racing against him,” Leclerc added.

Ferrari’s Calm Amidst the Spotlight

While Hamilton’s arrival has drawn significant attention to Ferrari, Leclerc insists that it has not distracted him or the team. The increased media frenzy surrounding Ferrari is natural, given Hamilton’s legendary status in the sport, but Leclerc feels the team remains focused.

“I can see the craziness around the track, but it’s only positive. It’s part of the job, and the team is doing a great job in the background,” said Leclerc. “Ferrari has always had a lot of attention, and with Lewis joining, it’s just gotten even bigger.”

As the 2025 season unfolds, Leclerc is excited about the potential Ferrari has with Hamilton on board. With two of the best drivers in the world at the helm, Ferrari fans have every reason to be hopeful that their team will once again contend for the coveted Formula 1 World Championship.
