Former F1 team owner Eddie Jordan has urged 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Charles Leclerc to make the most of being settled at Ferrari as 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lewis Hamilton gets up to speed with his new team.

2025 will be Leclerc’s seventh season at Ferrari, joining in 2019 alongside 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Sebastian Vettel.

Leclerc has made the team his own, dismantling Vettel before keeping 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Carlos Sainz at arm’s length.

A rejuvenated Hamilton will likely be Leclerc’s toughest challenge yet as both drivers look to challenge 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Max Verstappen for this year’s world title.

For Leclerc, he will be in an advantageous position to begin with, given that he’s been with Ferrari for a sig🌃nificant amount of time.

Speakin🧸g on t𝕴he , Jordan explained why Leclerc needs to capitalise early on.

“Leclerc is there nowඣ seven years. He’s knows everꦡybody. He knows all the people, what to say, the language,” Jordan said.

“He’s the darling of Maranello. However, he will be surprised. I think he had a certain way with him over Sainz. As f🐈ar as I am concerned, I think Lewis will hit the ground running. Well, I don’t want to say hit the ground running. I think ﷽it will take him two or three races.

“I would urge Leclerc to get on his b🐈ike at the early stage because that when’s Leclerc is going to show certain amounts of dominance.

“As the season unfolds, as the people show more, more and more love for him [Hamilton], particularly the Italian fraternity, the Tifosi🍸, but also the country, because this is a national team. I really think that Lewis wants to and will embrace the love that it projects.”

Ferrari gear up for F1 launch

It’s been a busy couple of weeks for Ferrari since Hamilton’ღs firs🧔t day with the team.

Hamilton and Leclerc drove the SF-23 a🅘t Fiorano during the seven-time world champion’s first week ☂with the team.

Shortly after, they both were in action in Barcelona, mak🙈ing the most of their TPC quota.

Their running was cut short followi🌳ng a crash for Hamilton in the final sector at the Spanish c🌊ircuit.

Earlier this week, the SF-24 was out on track as Ferrari and McLaren assisted Pire💮lli with their 2026 tyre development.

Those two days of running went smoothly for both drivers as they gear up for l💖aunch season.

Their next on-track appearance is set fo🙈r February 19, the day the SF-25 will be officially unveiled.
