There is a 13-year age gap between Lewis and Charles ahead of their debut season as Ferrari team-mates.
The rivalry between Ferrari team-mates Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc is being hailed as a “generational issue,” with Hamilton, aged 40, making a final career move to Ferrari after a long stint with Mercedes. At 13 years younger, Leclerc is seen as a potential future champion challenging the seasoned Hamilton. Both drivers are eager for the competition to elevate their performance, with Piero Ferrari noting the advantages this dynamic will bring to both. Despite concerns about Hamilton’s age, Ferrari sees his experience and professionalism as significant assets for the team. The success of Ferrari’s challenge this year will largely depend on their SF-75 challenger, with hopes for a stronger season in 2025 before potential changes in 2026.
