Charles Leclerc was the last guest to podcast Box, Box, Box of the official tire supplier of the top category of motorsport, Pirelli, where he spoke about the great challenge that awaits him from next season in Ferrari with Lewis Hamilton as a teammate.
Even though Ferrari has performed very well this season as a team and with three races remaining to end the year still has a chance to become champions in 2024, they will be one of many teams that will change their lineup of drivers for 2025, since the seven-time world champion will replace Carlos Sainz.
The Madrilenian and the Monegasque form a great couple since they joined the Maranello team, so By breaking this link and betting on the arrival of Hamilton, Ferrari is clearly exposing itself in this sense. Leclerc himself prefers not to make predictions for the moment when it comes to talking about what his relationship with the current pilot will be like. Mercedes: “Well, I don't know yet, he hasn't joined the team yet, but I'm sure it will be very special.”
To which he added: “I have always had a very special relationship with Carlos [Sainz] and we work very well together. But looking to the future, Lewis is obviously a seven-time world champion, he's the most successful driver of all time in Formula 1.”

“But I will also try to show what I am capable of doing with the same car as him, and that is a big motivation for me,” he explained.
If he's been convinced of anything, no matter who he has as a teammate, it's that Ferrari will win the world championship as soon as possiblesomething we remember they could achieve this year.
“I am sure that Ferrari will be the next team to win the world championship. All we have to do is continue to work hard,” concluded Charles Leclerc.
