F1: Lewis Hamilton Could ‘Be Sent Home’ if Ferrari Tensions Continue

Former Haas team principal Guenther Steiner warned that Ferrari boss Fred Vasseur could send Lewis Hamilton or Charles Leclerc home if their on-track clashes continue. Speaking on The Red Flags Podcast, Steiner addressed rising tensions between the Ferrari teammates following an incident at the Mexican Grand Prix. During the race, Leclerc passed Hamilton off track on lap one, receiving a five-second penalty while allowing Max Verstappen to claim victory.

Hamilton expressed frustration after the race, believing he had a car capable of winning from pole position before being compromised by his teammate's move. Steiner noted that while having two race-winning drivers is a positive problem for Ferrari, unresolved conflict could force Vasseur to take drastic disciplinary action to protect the team.
