Did Lewis Hamilton get inside Charles Leclerc's head at Canadian GP?

At the 2026 Canadian Grand Prix, Lewis Hamilton delivered his strongest performance since joining Ferrari, outqualifying teammate Charles Leclerc twice and finishing in second place, crossing the line 30 seconds ahead of him. Former Ferrari engineer Rob Smedley claimed that Hamilton's performance had a significant psychological effect on Leclerc, referencing Leclerc's blunt self-assessment after qualifying. Smedley's comments suggest Hamilton's form is beginning to mentally unsettle his Ferrari teammate.
