Hamilton talked about the professionalism and talent of Lecler. The racer Ferrari Lewis Hamilton recalled the Grand Prix of Bahrain-2019-then the Briton already spoke about the prospects of Charles Lekler.
Lekler, who spent the second stage for the pudriya, won Pole and rode to victory, but finished third because of problems with the motor. Hamilton, who played for Mercedes, won the race.
We have a great relationship with Charles. I just watch how it works. He is a big, big professional. It can be seen that he is loved in the team, he is well built into it. This is a supercom`s situation: he simply jumps into the car and immediately shows the speed.
He is very fast, and I understand it very well. You saw his qualifications - he collects excellent circles.
Many years ago in Bahrain I said that a great future awaits him. Charles is only 27 years old. It is very mature for the 27-year-old-perhaps more mature than I was in 27. Naturally, it will not be easy to defeat him, especially at his house.
But we will work together, cooperate so that the car and the team move in the right direction. And we will give out beautiful races, I hope, ”said the seven-time formula-1 champion.
