Ferrari leader refused to help Hamilton. What is the reason?

Charles Leclerc says he cannot give Lewis Hamilton any advice that would help the seven-time champion improve his results at Ferrari.

The British driver joined the Italian team in January after a successful 12-year period at Mercedes. However, he was off the pace throughout the 2025 season and was consistently outclassed by Leclerc, who took all seven podiums for Ferrari that year.

“My job is to make the most of what I can control,” LeClair said.

I’m already focused on a lot of things for myself and the team, and I’m trying to adapt my style to the car. Therefore, it is also difficult to waste time helping Lewis. Moreover, he achieved much more than me. “I don’t have any advice to give him.”

Leclerc emphasized that joining a new team is a big challenge for any driver.

“Joining a new team is always a long process. I’ve been at Ferrari for seven years, everything comes naturally to me, but for Lewis it’s still new even after a year. The processes are completely different; the way the team works, the vision of the project, the way of working. It takes time to get used to it.”
