Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz REACT to Lewis Hamilton's Ferrari move 🔴🐎 

It's just unfair when you have F1 drivers like lance stroll who's not interested in F1 anymore but you dont have carlos sainz who's ready to put full efforts to win a championship

@@vi14753You just found out F1 is unfair? I don't mean this in a critical way. But F1 is not a sport, at least not the way most people perceive it, it's not soccer or volleyball. It's a golden club of 20 most fortunate people in the world, who were born in the right place at the right time and all the stars aligned for them to be there. Stroll happened to be born where he was and that predetermined him to be in the F1, that's all he had to do and therefore he has right to be there, and I'm far from being his fan. We can criticize, but it's absolutely futile and goes against the basic principles of F1.

@@Viflo you're right, to add to you comment, all motorsports in general are like that!

@@T-o-m-s That's true. But there are many disciplines in motorsport, young talent can go there, just to address the people that say "Stroll is taking up the seat that some young talent could take".

They both are. Ferrari was very lucky to have Charles and Carlos

Something his fans are clearly not able to do.

Just like lecultist except theyre 10000x worst​@@AsSudan33

@@crystal8537 lecultist exist? i thought leclerc was just a meme like he is a good driver his worst enemy is just literally ferrari lol

No doubt Ferrari reminded him about that

At What time?

As Ferrari drivers, they must be used to this by now.

Except that's not strictly true. He took over from an older, accomplished driver, a world champion nearing the end of his career. Now he's forced to make room for even more accomplished multiple world champion 3 years older than Vettel and 10 years older than him... because said accomplished driver stalls at his current team and has a whim to put on some red overalls before he retires. It's the other way round.

Doesn't he always look like that

You would too if your wife told you she's getting a new husband in 2025, but you have to be with her for the remaining 12 months 😂😂😂

@@TheoFenneldepends on the wife lol

She loves you but needs to do what’s best for her🤣

@@kalenshoemaker6415 🤣🤣🤣.

Ofcourse he will get a seat. A top five driver always gets a seat.

He will especially when audi takes over sauber or stake. The driver musical chairs has just begun.

@@Roguescienceguy but he's not a top 5 driver

@@Dolek135 Max, Charles, Fernando, Norris, Lewis, Carlos... Yeah, you are right. It's top six. Judgement is not always based on outright pace. Quite a number of high IQ-drives by him

He’s also had to defer to Charles at times when he could have had more points himself.

very very well trained PR

Not underrated. He is clearly overrated. Why are you saying he is underrated? How can be such kind of fanatic and unfair? He is slow, mediocre driver and a false person.

@@kakhak He beat charles on points in his first season with Ferrari, and has been pretty close to him, closer than Vettel a 4x wdc was. Sainz is good. Not top 5 on the grid, but he's solid, consistent and his biggest strength is ignoring or correcting ferrari on their bad strategies, something Charles still hasn't learned how to do because he respects ferrari too much.

both of you guys are going to the opposite extremes, Carlos is a good driver, great situational awareness, lots of drive and determination, might not have the talents of Max and Charles, but still pretty good driver, not mediocre at all.

​@@kakhakthe fact that you and others believe Carlos is overrated is evidence that he's underrated. In his first year of F1, he and Max were teammates at Toro Rosso. Carlos was driving better than Max. Max was promoted to Redbull because Jos demanded it or he'd take Max out of their driver line-up and farm him out to another team. Max also had more potential as he matured, so Redbull put him in the main team and let him mature while in there. If it were on merit at that time, Carlos would have gotten the drive. He's very very close to Leclerc in qualifying lap times and the only non Redbull driver to win a race in 2023. Carlos also keeps his cool and thinks strategically further ahead than most on the grid (Singapore for example).

​@@kakhak only driver outside Redbull to get wins, poles & podiums each year since '22.

Charles' was more PR answer, he did praise Lewis and then when Lawrence asked him more about his friendship with Carlos he shut that down. Imo he's pleased with the situation.

@@ellobo4290 Not that Carlos isn't a great driver. But I think Lewis could bring in much friction and Charles' chances at a championship will be much harder with Lewis as a teammate.

@@BibotoMusic Nah, tbh I think Lewis and Charles will get on like a house on fire.

No gloves don’t forget

He’s set for life, don’t be sad

He’s one of the better and more experienced drivers on the grid, teams (and good ones) will be tripping over each other to sign him up.

@@jamespoole3531 naah

Why? He's not short of a few bob and he'll probably get a new, highly paid job with Audi?

Why? That’s racing.

My favourite all-time nail-biting final 10 laps! 😍 and I didn’t even need Netflix to help raise the excitement of this one. 😎

Carols and Alonso at AM would be a hella team

Checo is better then Carlos

​@@YoungMaster_626 ooo I disagree maybe not at tyre management but I don't think Sainz struggles to finish 2nd last season in that Red Bull and definitely challenges Max more than Checo on quali and race pace IMO

​@@chrishaswell4405Doubt it

@hidden_name7469 great response lol very insightful

He can still come back. Ferrari hold no grudges if you don´t disparage them publicly. Carlos is doing the right thing here and if he keeps getting better there´s no reason Ferrari won´t rehire him.

@@MrSilverfish12why should he go back to Ferrari? They chose leclerc who’s been much less consistent than sainz

@@ru6886 F1 drivers or any racing driver don´t usually hold grudges like that, it´s just business. Ferrari is a big team that pay out big salaries for drivers, unless Sainz is racing at Mercedes, RB or McLaren there´s always a chance he comes back to Ferrari.

@@ru6886 don’t let your favouritism cloud your judgement, Charles is the quicker driver

Carlos has something to prove now, he could be champion

It would be good if he got the Merc seat and could beat Hamilton!!! Good Luck Carlos

The last two years? Were you watching in 2022? Charles won 3 times

Myfave driver is seb and carlos but fave team is Mclaren :)

Nah, they don’t need him.

Prolly won't happen, but i want him to go to RB or Aston at the least

​@@thebateman761won't go to RB. It was insanely toxic when they were at Torro Rosso ( more the families than themselves) just can't see RB doing that again

No it wasnt lol ​@phodge9985

​@phodge9985 don't mention team orders, it was the same with checo and ricciardo

I've been hoping this, not so that he can spite the others at ferrari, but because he deserves a great season.

@chrissadd7413 The risk is that he misses out on Audi in 2026.

@@MuhammadImHardBruceLee what risk? Audi wont be up to speed until 2027 and you think theyll be winning lots in their second season already? also the red bull car doesnt suit him

@@MuhammadImHardBruceLeeto be fair Carlos still has a good decade left if he wants to be in this career that much longer. If he eventually wants to be in Audi he still has time

I don´t see nothing brutal about driver replacement. Unless they bring in sponsor money to grow the team they are really just there to test experimental cars. Carlos did well, but Lewis Hamilton is a massive asset to any team who´s serious about building and pushing cars and technology.

Problem is it's not everyday that perhaps the greatest driver of all time leaves his team and wants to join the team that Carlos is at. Rare problems also have rare solutions.

@@sujatadasroy4269 We'll see. It's Charles' patch and there's no doubt he's very quick. Plus we don't necessarily know how long Lewis will be in his prime. I'm not saying he isn't a better immediate prospect for the team than Sainz (and I should make it clear I'm by no means a Hamilton fan) but it strikes me as something of a desperate move. Does it help them in a longer term as he's obviously in the twilight years and does it perhaps put even more pressure on the team - in a team that creates its own high pressure out of thin air every year. And if they concentrated on getting the engineering right, they had a driver line-up that would have been able to deliver anyway. Is Hamilton going to be enough to plug that gap? However much Charles breaks him in qually (assuming he does), I'm sure Hamilton's racecraft and self-confidence will allow him to get the better of him results wise.

What's the point of ignoring the inevitable?? Everyone already knows...... might as well ask them their thoughts!

I understand what you mean but hear me out. On socials I had to scroll down to look for new posts about new cars because everything pinned is about Lewis. It's distracting from the more important things such as new cars.And I mostly like to live in a present and not future.@@Batman22222

​@@Batman22222but NOW?? If its ur favourite driver would u be happy abt it. Basic manners

Agreed

Much better he found out early to secure a drive at Audi, rather than waiting until September or worse. Also not talking about it is silly, the elephant in the room would loom a little too large.

I didn't want to see him go to Audi because I didn't know who was going to replace him. But now there is no burden on my mind whatsoever. 😂 Like, come on given his family's connection to Audi you know he's not gonna be out of a seat.

you would be a terrible team principal man. Carlos is a good driver but if the choice is a 7 time champion (in my opinion 8 times) compared to a 2 time race winner then you go with Hamilton. Carlos is not on Lewis's level at all

You are not alone

@@Hamilton8timeChampion thahahaaa. We will see about that. Charles has a very hardcore crew behind him. This time Lewis won't have an entire team tailored to his wishes. Prime Lewis was better than Carlos, but not by much. I give Lewis absolutely zero chance against Charles. It will be a slaughterfest against a Charles who will be almost at his peak. He has no business at Ferrari. Btw, Lewis can be happy to be called a seven times WDC. Should've been six

@@Roguescienceguy 1. Charles is better on a saturday whilst Lewis is better on a sunday when the points are given. 2. Prime lewis was lightyears ahead of current Carlos. 3. Lewis is a 7 time champion as he won 2008, 2014, 2015, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020. 4. Lewis went into a team not built around him in 2013 and beat rosberg who the team was built around don't assume he can't do it again.

Mate firstly just observe how Lewis drives for Merc this season..... he'll knock it out of the park.....This change has got that FIRE burning again I'm sure....as always, time will tell!

Technically Lewis has multiple shots since it’s a multi year deal 😂

LOL! The famous "Milk Challenge"! I've watched it several times! And the time when Carlos butted his way into a post-race interview of Lando's! Carlos is a very talented comedic "straight man".

He is, and Mercedes could do far worse than snapping him up @@freddiefreihofer7716

Chicken you are every where and I’m scared

😢Same

Nah Ferrari always lets Charles down not Charles

If you watched every minute of every race, you would realise how easy the decision is to keep Charles, he is much quicker and consistent. Most of his flops are terrible strategy by the team or mechanical failures.

Y'all are such melts for real. 😂 It's a bit of a shame for sure but y'all acting like it's the end of the world can get over yourselves, he doesn't need you to cry for him. He'll be fine. His career is not over and it can still get better for him from here.

If you actually watched Ferrari and Leclerc's bad luck from race to race I bet you would have a different opinion. His qualifying results were not only better, but he also beat Sainz in head to head races over the season even with his bad luck as well as finish ahead in points. Sainz arguably had his best season last year and still got beat by Leclerc's worst season lmao

Are you new to the sport or have not seen the mclaren carlos? A win does not imply it was his best season. What happened in hungary? Or in momza? Some of you babysit leclerc too much.

I mean seems like someone in Ferrari leaked this news because it was the Italian press that was first reporting this. I don’t think the main players wanted this revealed until probably later in the season

Fits with what christian said, about Lewis approaching red bull

😂 Ferrari has been trying to recruit Lewis for years😅

It's possible but obviously Ferrari wanted him too considering what they offered him

It is true!

this is a fact already.
