Today at 08:12 AM
Lewis Hamilton's arrival at Ferrari has drawn media attention to the English champion. At Maranello, he will find a Charles Leclerc “like Sinner,” as Piero Ferrari described him. The entrepreneur, son of the legendary Enzo Ferrari, does not fear any negative consequences from the rivalry between the two talented drivers, who will have the opportunity to learn a lot from each other.
Ferrari in Lewis Hamilton's destiny and Charles Leclerc's welcome
Arriving in Maranello on a cold January day, the British champion received a warm welcome, including from Charles Leclerc. The Monegasque, as a good host, greeted Sir Lewis and welcomed him into the team.
Lewis Hamilton's adaptation to the team seems to be progressing quickly: cooperation, smiles, and family photos depict an ideal atmosphere within Ferrari, where both drivers are working toward a single goal—bringing the Scuderia back to championship glory.
A beneficial rivalry between a “Sinner-like” Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton
It is commonly believed that putting two roosters in the same henhouse is not the wisest move. The Leclerc-Hamilton pairing indeed features two “number ones” who certainly have no intention of playing a supporting role.
Some, like Bernie Ecclestone, believe that Sir Lewis' arrival at Maranello will not lead to anything particularly positive. However, there are also those within Ferrari who are convinced that the inevitable rivalry between Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton will bring unexpected benefits to both the Monegasque and the Briton.
Charles Leclerc’ determination to beat his highly regarded new teammate does not concern Piero Ferrari. The son of the Commendatore spoke to Autosprint with a sense of calm: “It has always been like this between teammates. It's part of the game!”
The Italian businessman also drew a parallel between two rising stars in international sports. “In Charles’ case, there's also a generational aspect. We are seeing it right now in tennis with Sinner and other young talents. It's the freshness of the young athlete against the experience and solidity of those with more years behind them. I am certain that the rivalry between Hamilton and Leclerc will benefit both drivers,” Piero Ferrari explained.
