Charles Leclerc unfazed by media focus on Lewis Hamilton at Ferrari

As Lewis Hamilton prepares for his debut season with Ferrari, Charles Leclerc has made it clear that he is unfazed by the media spotlight surrounding his new teammate ahead of the season-opening Australian Grand Prix.

Hamilton’s move to Ferrari has been one of the biggest stories in Formula 1 this year, with headlines dominated by the arrival of the seven-time world champion throughout the preseason.

As Leclerc enters his seventh season with the team, Hamilton playfully referred to him as “Mr. Ferrari” during a press conference in Australia. Despite the global attention on Hamilton, Leclerc remains focused on the season ahead.

When asked if he was concerned about Hamilton becoming the face of Ferrari, Leclerc confidently dismissed any worries.

He emphasized that Ferrari’s rich legacy goes far beyond any single driver, underscoring the importance of the team’s history and its collective pursuit of success.

With both drivers now at the Scuderia, all eyes will be on how their partnership shapes Ferrari’s 2024 campaign.
