So on that there\u2019s nothing different. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cHowever, obviously it\u2019s a unique point of view and Lewis had an incredible career, so yeah, these are things that we are looking closely [at]. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut it didn\u2019t only start it now. I mean it starts from the first race where you have the first points where things are different and you\u2019ve got to get used to and other things that you want to change and this is part of the process. So I don\u2019t think there\u2019s anything standing out now. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think maybe it\u2019s the first time he said it so that\u2019s why it makes such a reaction, but it\u2019s nothing particular to this moment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>READ MORE \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.motorsportweek.com\/2025\/07\/19\/ferrari-poised-to-bring-revised-suspension-to-belgium-after-positive-f1-test\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Ferrari poised to bring revised suspension to Belgium after positive F1 test<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Charles Leclerc has insisted the revelation that Lewis Hamilton has been sending documents to Ferrari is \u201cnothing new\u201d&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":21154,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[12040,1665,1687,831,372,6537,832,101,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-21153","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-f1","8":"tag-belgiangp","9":"tag-charles-leclerc","10":"tag-f1","11":"tag-ferrari","12":"tag-formula-1","13":"tag-formula1","14":"tag-lewis-hamilton","15":"tag-sports","16":"tag-uk","17":"tag-united-kingdom","18":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21153","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=21153"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21153\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/21154"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=21153"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=21153"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=21153"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
