'It's definitely a different way of racing for someone like Lewis...'
Lewis Hamilton has been warned that future team-mate Charles Leclerc has the power to create a “really, really difficult” atmosphere at Ferrari in the F1 2025 season.His switch will see Hamilton, the most decorated driver in history with seven World Championships and more than 100 race victories to his name, take on Leclerc, widely regarded as the fastest man on the current grid.
Jenson Button famously outscored Hamilton during their three seasons as McLaren team-mates between 2010 and 2012, which ended with the latter fleeing to Mercedes for 2013.Appearing on the Sky F1 podcast, Button argued that Hamilton would not have been equipped to strike a productive partnership with a driver of Leclerc’s calibre just a few years ago.
He said: “I think if it was the Lewis of seven or eight years ago, it would be a tricky relationship. “Nico Rosberg will tell you that as well: it’s about getting the team of people behind you, so that gives you strength and it takes away strength from your team-mate.
