Ferrari told to prioritise Lewis Hamilton for chance at 2026 F1 title

1997 Formula 1 champion Jacques Villeneuve has called on Ferrari to prioritize Lewis Hamilton over Charles Leclerc in pursuit of the 2026 championship. Hamilton recently secured his first victory as a Ferrari driver at the Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix, giving him a 40-point lead over Leclerc in the drivers' standings. Speaking on the Sky Sports F1 Show, Villeneuve argued that Hamilton's experience and race-winning pedigree make him the best bet for Ferrari to challenge for the title.
