Four Intense Seasons
The partnership between Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz at Ferrari was marked by intensity. Four years full of emotions, triumphs, disappointments, moments of unity, and occasional tensions both on and off the track. Now that their journey has ended—with Carlos Sainz officially joining Williams as of January 1, 2025—mutual respect and admiration prevail. Together, they became part of Ferrari’s storied history, achieving three double podiums as teammates.
Tensions and Reconciliation
Carlos Sainz decided to end his 2024 by paying tribute to his former teammate through his official Instagram account. His heartfelt message seemingly puts to rest any lingering tensions between the two, especially after a turbulent end to the 2024 Formula 1 season marked by pointed team radio exchanges, such as Charles Leclerc’s comments following the Las Vegas GP.
A Farewell to End an Era
“These have been four incredible years fighting together for Ferrari,” wrote Carlos Sainz, tagging Charles Leclerc and sharing several photos of them together. “Thank you for all the great moments we shared along the way. I wish you nothing but the best for next year and beyond.” This virtual embrace signals the conclusion of an era.
Looking ahead, the future has already arrived for the Maranello team: Lewis Hamilton is now at the helm.
