Ferrari insider says team should back Hamilton for 2025 title

The argument being made here is a stark one: Ferrari should pick a horse and ride it, even if that means sidelining Leclerc at a moment when he is showing genuine pace. It reflects a tension that has defined Ferrari's multi-driver eras before — the gap between letting a championship fight play out organically and making the cold calculation that only a unified team effort can beat a dominant rival. The fact that this view is coming from inside Ferrari's orbit, rather than from outside critics, suggests the internal debate is real and not settled. For anyone watching the constructors' picture, it is a signal that Ferrari knows a split-points strategy may already be costing them.
