Ferrari 2025: the lack of clarity and discord between Charles Leclerc, Lewis Hamilton and Fred Vasseur. Ferrari’s 2025 season is marked by a lack of clarity and internal disagreements .

Why Ferrari is showing “a lack of clarity” in 2025, with disagreements between drivers and Vasseur

In 2025, Ferrari is showing signs of “a lack of clarity,” with noticeable disagreements between Charles Leclerc, Lewis Hamilton, and Team Principal Fred Vasseur. Beyond the obvious problems with the SF-25, it seems the Italian team has regressed in several areas, demonstrating poor decision-making in critical moments and conflicting statements from its key figures.

Encouraging signs in 2024 set high expectations

The 2024 season had been encouraging. Ferrari displayed strong competitiveness on track, managing to optimize a package that was not as fast as McLaren’s. The team also demonstrated maturity and courage compared to its rivals, which contributed to the historic Monza victory. Expectations for 2025 were therefore extremely high, especially with the arrival of Lewis Hamilton. However, Ferrari has collapsed not only technically but also organizationally, a point highlighted by Ivan Capelli in the latest episode of Race Anatomy.

Capelli: “The direction is not aligned”

Ivan Capelli commented: “There is a lack of clarity in everything that is happening. Within the team, the drivers’ words often contradict what Fred Vasseur says. There is discord, and the direction is not aligned, which is worrying. Ferrari has never fully seized opportunities, and Baku was one chance to do so. Fred Vasseur claims to be a racer, knowing when to take advantage, but in qualifying, it was Williams and Red Bull who capitalized. This is a Formula 1 that is very rigid, with engineers calculating everything.”

We have often highlighted how the Team Principal’s statements are far from the current mediocre reality. Criticism is inevitable, and the pressure for 2026 is increasing.

Fred Vasseur’s challenge after a difficult season

The French manager must prove he deserved his contract renewal after a disastrous year. Mario Miyakawa also noted that fans expect to see a winning Ferrari, yet it has been eighteen years since a championship triumph. Mario Miyakawa added: “What hurts is seeing Japanese commentators, who may not fully understand the situation, look at Ferrari in disbelief after finishing eighth and ninth. The inability to fight for positions is shocking, and it hurts because people who don’t follow the sport regularly are questioning how Ferrari is not in contention.”
