Christian Horner Sparks Debate on Ferrari’s Driver Line-Up Strategy for 2025 ��
Red Bull’s team boss, Christian Horner, has voiced concerns about Ferrari’s bold 2025 driver pairing of Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton, describing it as potentially “divisive.” As Ferrari prepares to embark on the season with these two powerhouse drivers, Horner questions how the team will manage the dynamics of having no clear hierarchy.
While Red Bull remains committed to a structured approach—Max Verstappen as their lead driver with Liam Lawson supporting him—Ferrari appears to be taking a more open-ended route. Horner suggests this could lead to internal conflicts, particularly with Hamilton chasing a record-breaking eighth title and Leclerc aiming to assert himself as Ferrari’s long-term hope for championship glory.
��️ "A team like Ferrari…are going to have two drivers that are going to be taking points off each other – and which horse do you back?" Horner remarked, highlighting the challenges of balancing two top-tier talents.
Ferrari's Strategy: A "Happy Headache"?
Ferrari’s team principal Fred Vasseur, however, remains unbothered by the potential for driver clashes. Reflecting on his approach during the Leclerc-Sainz partnership, Vasseur emphasized that allowing drivers to race freely had previously benefited the team. He also dismissed concerns of friction between Hamilton and Leclerc, framing their rivalry as a potential boost to team performance.
��️ "I prefer to fight for one, two than for 19, 20," Vasseur explained, noting that competition between drivers fosters "emulation" and improves the team's overall output.
With both Ferrari and Red Bull embracing contrasting philosophies for the 2025 season, the stage is set for thrilling battles—both within teams and against their rivals. As Hamilton and Leclerc prepare to share the Scuderia’s garage, fans eagerly anticipate whether Ferrari’s gamble will propel them back to the top—or create the tension Horner predicts. ��

Poor old Serge was always going to be between a rock and a hard place in the RB20 and no amount of sponsor money could cloud the issue.

He benefited from rain and safety car, massively. Not on pure pace.

Equal parts luck and mclaren mismanaged strategy (their downfall in the wdc all year).

It wasn't luck passing cars en masse, just VER knowhow.

Or that he put down fastest lap after fastest lap time and time again, and not just putting them down, but 1,5sec faster than anyone else over and over.

Race of the decade. for sure.
Even the most biased british reporters now start to think that too (reluctantly...). One just can't deny an achievement like that in a rain race, where cars matter less and it all comes down to skill and talent.

What ?!?!
Well mate , your post sounds like a Fkin crime scene (!)

If MAX benefited from the Brazilian heavy rain , can you tell me why the other drivers didn't benefit from the rain ?

But let me help you ...
MAX showed it over and over again that he is unbeatable in the rain .
It wasn't the car , the RB20 was a worthless crappy car with a big fundamental design flaw and with some luck it was the 3rd fastest car at the 2024 grid.
Big b@lls and incredible driver skills are required to do it .
And MAX will do it again . Just wait for it (!)
