Charles Leclerc says rumours he's in line for a direct swap with Lewis Hamilton are probably created by 'someone wants to destabilise us'... F1
Charles Leclerc has rubbished rumours he’s in line for a direct swap with Lewis Hamilton, putting the wild speculation down to someone wanting to “destabilise” Ferrari.Despite Ferrari’s reassurances they’d resolved their power unit’s reliability issues from 2022, Leclerc already has his first engine penalty of the season and it’s only round two of the championship, with a 10-place grid drop at the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix.
As for Hamilton, he’s potentially facing another season without a win with Mercedes conceding they “got it wrong” with the W14 and that it’s back to the drawing board for them. With the two drivers said to be frustrated, a rumour emerged in the build-up to the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix suggesting they could do a direct swap as early as next season.
