Android f1 20191/29/2024 MH: The romantic notion is to have Leclerc come in and blow Vettel's doors off - similar to Ricciardo at Red Bull in 2014. I've been careful not to jump on board the Leclerc Hype Train, but he was super impressive this year and I can see him making an immediate impact. Vettel struggled alongside Daniel Ricciardo in similar circumstances in 2014. This year showed some glaring weaknesses in Vettel's race craft and temperament, and that was all alongside a fairly uncompetitive teammate (in comparison). NS: You know what, I'm putting my neck on the line - Charles Leclerc. Leclerc is clearly still learning in these early years of his career - especially on the engineering side - so I think Vettel will have what it takes to come out on top. Yes, Leclerc looked impressive in his debut year with Sauber, but let's not forget he was up against Marcus Ericsson and not a four-time world champion. LE: I think it will be close, but I reckon Vettel's extra experience will give him the edge. Who will score more points, Sebastian Vettel or Charles Leclerc? If he continues the run of form he's shown this year, Lewis will be a driver at the peak of his powers and borderline unstoppable. MH: Given the way Hamilton has been driving with such speed and supreme confidence this year, if Mercedes do even a half a decent job, it's difficult to see anyone getting close. Ferrari cannot afford the sort of implosions that ruined their last two seasons. Sebastian Vettel and Charles Leclerc should both have the car and do have the talent to do so, but we saw Hamilton reach a new and terrifying level in 2018. NS: Only an error-free Ferrari campaign can. I don't see Ferrari dropping back relative to Mercedes over the winter, and now the Italian team has Charles Leclerc on board, it has two drivers capable of taking the fight to Hamilton. Had Sebastian Vettel not made a bunch of mistakes during the second half of this year, we would have had a very different season finale in Abu Dhabi.
