The 2025 Formula 1 season is set to be one of the most dramatic in recent history, with Lewis Hamilton joining Charles Leclerc at Ferrari. While fans anticipate this blockbuster pairing, renowned F1 journalist Leo Turrini believes the dynamic within the Maranello garage could spark intense rivalries.

Leclerc unfazed by Hamilton’s legacy

Turrini asserts that Leclerc will not be intimidated by Hamilton’s record-setting resume, citing the Monegasque’s past success in dethroning a four-time world champion.

“The Monegasque is not the type to have inferiority complexes,” Turrini explained. “He has already shown with Seb Vettel that he doesn’t give a damn about other people’s CVs. Lewis knows this perfectly well.”

Leclerc’s fearless approach to racing was evident in 2019 when he outperformed Sebastian Vettel during his first season at Ferrari, ultimately cementing his position as the team’s top driver.

Hamilton’s challenge at Ferrari

Hamilton’s arrival at Ferrari marks a monumental shift in the sport. After a decade with Mercedes, the seven-time champion’s decision to join the Scuderia signals his determination to pursue an unprecedented eighth world title. Hamilton recently got his first taste of Ferrari machinery, debuting at Fiorano with the SF-23, Ferrari’s 2023 race-winning car.

While Hamilton’s experience and success are unmatched, Turrini predicts the Briton will face stiff competition from his younger teammate.

“Certainly, Hamilton and Leclerc will not go beyond their way to help each other at Ferrari this year,” Turrini noted.

An inevitable clash?

The prospect of two highly competitive drivers under one roof has often led to tension in F1. Turrini cautioned that Ferrari’s harmonious start to the season may not last, warning of potential conflicts as both drivers aim to assert dominance.

“It won’t be all roses—or rather, Red—and flowers, trust me,” Turrini said.

Fans can expect on-track battles between Hamilton and Leclerc as they vie for supremacy, not just against rivals like Max Verstappen but within their own team. How Ferrari manages this delicate dynamic will be critical to its championship ambitions.

A high-stakes season for Ferrari

Ferrari enters the 2025 season with renewed optimism after finishing a close second in the 2024 Constructors’ Championship. With both Hamilton and Leclerc on board, the Scuderia has one of the strongest lineups on the grid. However, balancing the ambitions of two elite drivers could be their greatest challenge.

The stakes are higher than ever. For Hamilton, it’s the pursuit of a record-breaking eighth title. For Leclerc, it’s the opportunity to establish himself as the clear leader of Ferrari’s future. As the season kicks off, the world will be watching to see whether this partnership can deliver glory—or implode under the weight of its own expectations.
