Lewis Hamilton's concerns about Red Bull: "I believe Charles Leclerc is right"

The Superiority of Red Bull
The dominance shown by Red Bull in the current season is such that the hypothesis of seeing the Anglo-Austrian team winning all the races on this year’s calendar is becoming increasingly concrete. Moreover, there’s a growing possibility of witnessing Milton Keynes’ team’s superiority in the next two championships as well. Until the 2026 Formula 1 campaign, the technical regulations will keep the rules regarding the current era of power units unchanged, with a subsequent and significant modification that could change the game.

Charles Leclerc’s Concerns
Until that point, however, the general concern is to see Red Bull’s competing teams almost unable to catch up with their rivals. This concern was not hidden by Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc, who is rather pessimistic about envisioning an open challenge with Red Bull until that championship. Nevertheless, Lewis Hamilton, representing Mercedes and a seven-time champion, added his voice to that of the Monegasque driver

Lewis Hamilton Supports the Ferrari Driver
Ahead of of the Dutch Grand Prix, the British driver seemed to share the opinion of Ferrari’s #16, focusing on the excellent form Red Bull is experiencing, which could prove crucial for the next Formula 1 season as well:

“The fact is they’re ahead and most likely have started developing next year’s car months ahead of everyone else, since they have 100 or 200 points of advantage in the standings – he admitted – so it’s quite likely that Charles is right. At Mercedes, we’re working uphill to try to develop and close the gap. Whether we’ll succeed or not next year, we’ll show, and we hope we can.” – he pointed out.

Lando Norris’ different philosophy
On the contrary, Lando Norris, driving for McLaren, which has introduced convincing developments in recent GPs allowing the Woking-based team to step onto the podium three times in the last three races, has a different perspective: “If we think about how we started the season and consider the improvements made up to now, I think it’s a huge result in such a short period of time – he explained – so, from what I’ve seen and what we’ve been able to do in the last season, I believe Red Bull can be caught, but that’s life. They’re doing a good job, and the others aren’t doing enough. That’s how things go.”
