168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Charles Leclerc faces a “make or break” year when he goes up against new Ferrari teammate 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton in 2025, F1 world champion Jacques Villeneuve has claimed.
Seven-time world champion Hamilton will become Leclerc’s third Ferrari teammate next season having sensationally decided to quit Me༺rcedes.
Leclerc outperformed Sebastian Vettel and has largely held the edge over current teammate 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Carlos Sainz, who will make way for the incoming Hamilton.
The Monegasque has won just five grands prix compared to Hamilton’s 103 and Villenueve reckons Leclerc is set for a potentially career-defining period wh𝐆en he is joined at Maranello by the Briton.
“He still has to prove it,” 1997 F1 world champion Villeneu🔴ve told GPFans.
“He’s shown a lot of speed, he’s shown that he’s super fast, but he’s not the one who won the race for F🅺errari last year. So it will be interesting to see how that balan🍷ces out inside Ferrari.
“This will be make or break for Charles, not f𒆙or Lewis.”
Leclerc has finished behind Sainz at every race s♛o far this season.
Sainz fin♔ished third ahead of Leclerc at the season-opening Bahrain Grand Prix before he was forced to sk𒅌ip the next round in Saudi Arabia due to having an appendectomy.
Upon his return, Sainz headed a Ferrari 1-2 to claim a brilliant victory in Australia, before🔴 once again getting the better of Leclerc in Japan.
Former F1 driver Vitantonio Liuzzi has suggested that Leclerc is “suffering” as a r🥃esult of Sainz’s impr💦essive form.
“Leclerc and Sainz? I have to say that last year, in the second half of the season, I saw incredible growth from Carlos. He proved it wit𝄹h the victo🔯ry in Singapore,” he told Italian publication Corriere dello Sport.
“I did not expect to see a Leclerc so under pressure and in trouble this year, he is suffering from the performance of Sainz, who will leave at the end of the season, but Hamilton 🍎will arrive in his place; therefore, Leclerc will have an important battle next to him.
“I hope Charles can find himself, he wiꦰll be fundamental for the balance of the red car.”
Lewis regularly attends Grands P🗹rix for ltxcn.top around the world. Often reporting on the action from the ground, Lewis tells the stories of the people who matter in the sport.
