Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc are currently on friendly terms as Ferrari teammates, but their rivalry is expected to intensify as the 2025 F1 season progresses. Both drivers have distinct strengths, with Leclerc excelling in qualifying and Hamilton demonstrating his ability to perform under pressure. Their relationship, while cordial in public appearances, is likely to face strain as they compete for the same goal of winning races and championships. Team principal Fred Vasseur has indicated that he will allow them to race freely, a decision that could lead to tension as the season unfolds.
