Lewis Hamilton criticizes Ferrari over lack of team rules

Lewis Hamilton has sparked tension within Ferrari following an incident with teammate Charles Leclerc at the Italian Grand Prix in Monza. During the race, Hamilton attempted to overtake on the inside of the first chicane while battling for third place, but Leclerc blocked the path, causing Hamilton to slide into the gravel and drop to ninth position.

Following the race, the seven-time world champion criticized the team for a lack of clear protocols and team orders. Hamilton stated, “There are no rules here,” contrasting the current situation with his experience at Mercedes, where he claimed written rules were in place to manage such scenarios. He noted that the team is losing significant points to Mercedes.

Ferrari team principal Jean Henri Vasseur responded by stating that the matter would be discussed internally, noting that the situation is not ideal for the team.
