    法拉利面临关键抉择:车队内部问题与未来走向

    法拉利2026赛季陷入困境:车手组合不和谐、车队运营问题清单不断拉长,梅赛德斯和安东内利还在法拉利主场给了他们最难堪的打击。文章探讨车手、车队以及领队瓦塞尔接下来的出路,以及前红牛车队CEO霍纳可能扮演的角色。

    法拉利在2026年一级方程式赛季不断失控的情况下面临重大挑战:车手阵容内部不和谐,车队运营方式的问题清单也越来越多,而梅赛德斯和安东内利刚刚在法拉利的主场比赛中给了他们最令人难堪的一击。

    随着压力和审视的加剧,车手们、车队整体以及法拉利车队领队弗雷德·瓦塞尔接下来会怎样——前红牛车队首席执行官克里斯蒂安·霍纳又可能如何卷入这团乱局?

    关于车手方面,刘易斯·汉密尔顿已经明确表达了他认为需要改变什么才能让法拉利回到正轨。

    在意大利大奖赛第二节排位赛中,汉密尔顿抱怨勒克莱尔那一侧维修区缺乏配合——他认为这几乎导致他被灾难性地淘汰出前十名的排位争夺,而且对于正赛中他们在1号弯发生的事故该由谁负责,双方也存在明显分歧。

    汉密尔顿甚至特意为自己加入法拉利以来的行为进行辩护,他说:“我来到车队后一直努力尊重界限——并且绝对不会让车队陷入危险。至于另一面,你得去问弗雷德。”

    其中明显的言外之意是,夏尔·勒克莱尔才是这里的问题所在……

    那么,法拉利是否已经失去了对旗下车手阵容的控制?

    可以肯定的是,现在的局面显然不如之前勒克莱尔与卡洛斯·塞恩斯的组合那么和谐。

    汉密尔顿在2026年的复苏,有可能让车队内部形成一种更接近法拉利在1989-90年阿兰·普罗斯特与奈杰尔·曼塞尔时期所经历的格局——本质上就是两大巨头都希望车队为自己服务。

    勒克莱尔可能以为自己已经摸透了汉密尔顿的底细,毕竟2025年底是汉密尔顿在F1生涯中最糟糕的一个赛季。但今年汉密尔顿强势反击,驾驶状态大幅提升,还谈到了自己对本赛季新车的深刻影响,以及他与车队之间比以往契合得多。

    勒克莱尔是否察觉到幕后政治格局的变化,因此需要重新确立自己的地位——确保汉密尔顿不会实际上把车队从自己手中夺走?

    勒克莱尔公开否认他与汉密尔顿之间存在对立分裂的说法,并表示他不知道是谁在"刻意制造"这种叙事,但在蒙扎和赞德沃特最近两场比赛中,可以看出车队在两位车手赛道上接近时难以应对,必须牺牲一方的利益来帮助另一方。

    恰好在这两次最近的事件中,都是汉密尔顿需要勒克莱尔的帮助,而这种帮助并没有到来。

    法拉利在处理这件事时缺乏果断,这是否表明这支车队害怕在两人之间偏袒任何一方?

    看起来确实如此。在蒙扎之后,瓦塞尔提出了一个与迈凯伦的皮亚斯特里和诺里斯去年情况的相当牵强的比较,他说如果当时车队在皮亚斯特里领跑积分榜时偏袒皮亚斯特里而非诺里斯,那么维斯塔潘就会趁机夺得冠军,这完全忽略了迈凯伦实际上仍在执行自己的“木瓜规则”这一事实。

    正如汉密尔顿所说,法拉利在这方面没有任何规则。

    瓦塞尔与两位车手都保持着密切的关系。面对法拉利培养的本土天才勒克莱尔,以及数据上堪称F1历史最伟大车手的汉密尔顿——瓦塞尔本人还曾在青训类别中帮助培养过他——他会陷入两难而无法抉择吗?

    从外界来看,他似乎正拼命想让双方都满意,结果却谁也没讨好。

    这是个艰难的处境,因为勒克莱尔最近也刚与车队签下新的长期合同,而他从儿时起就一直与这支车队绑定在一起。这可能使他成为法拉利的“不可动摇之物”——与F1规模最大、最具商业价值的车手这股“不可抗拒之力”正面相撞,而后者突然再次以接近巅峰的状态驾驶赛车。

    而且如果两人都处于高水平状态,赛道上就没有天然的秩序来解决这个问题,这给身处顶端的瓦塞尔增加了压力,迫使他做出艰难的决定——而到目前为止,他似乎一直在回避。

    与此同时,败仗不断累积,法拉利显得愈发脆弱,这就引出了我们的下一个问题:瓦塞尔还能在这最新的尴尬局面下继续存活吗?

    在蒙扎赛后,汉密尔顿明确指出了法拉利需要变革的源头所在:“归根结底,变革来自最高层。决策是自上而下层层传导的。所以,这一切要从弗雷德开始。”

    但这并不是汉密尔顿想把瓦塞尔推下锅、掀起一场寻找新车队领队的行动。相反,这是在呼吁瓦塞尔挺身而出、树立权威,做出汉密尔顿认为法拉利要取得成功所必需的改变。

    汉密尔顿明白自己影响力的局限,用他的话说,那是“在山顶上一遍又一遍地呐喊”。归根结底,真正有权彻底整顿局面的,是车队老板。

    汉密尔顿明白,在战场上犯下的错误——无论是排位赛执行不力、比赛中策略失误这类操作性失误,还是车手之间的紧张关系——主要并不是源于个人的弱点。

    相反,车队是自上而下建立的领导架构的体现:汇报线路、沟通线路、由谁做决策,以及影响判断的信息质量,全都是由高层塑造的。

    如果不解决这些缺陷,解决方案只会变成掩盖伤口的创可贴。清理这些问题全都取决于瓦塞尔。

    汉密尔顿的言下之意是,法拉利需要开始像其他大车队那样行事。他认为,最近几周暴露出来的问题需要一次彻底的重置,法拉利才能充分利用本赛季剩下的时间。

    法拉利在蒙扎的麻烦无疑加大了瓦塞尔的压力,促使他采取果断行动,回应汉密尔顿提出的种种担忧。尽管瓦塞尔再次试图淡化这份失望,但在法拉利以如此疲软的表现、用瓦塞尔自己的话说“辜负”了看台上的粉丝之后,人们的耐心可能正在消磨殆尽。

    围场内消息灵通人士透露,蒙扎的这一幕——安东内利驾驶梅赛德斯赛车赢得粉丝欢心的当天,法拉利却遭遇灾难——在跃马高层那里留下的印象并不好看。

    现在的问题是,这是否会引发对瓦塞尔职位的审视。对于他今年做出的许多关键决策,确实有很多值得深究的地方。

    瓦塞尔是否本应更奋力地阻止发车程序规则的修改?正是这一修改抹去了法拉利凭借较小涡轮增压器所获得的优势。

    在这项由引擎主导、能源匮乏的规则体系下,为了提升底盘性能并钻营额外研发与升级机会制度,而牺牲引擎的极限动力——包括涡轮、工作温度和排气翼——这条路走对了吗?

    法拉利是否应该为其车手制定行为准则,并更加果断行事,以最大化争夺总冠军的机会?

    即使结论是今年错失了更好的成绩、长期来看应该更换车队领队,法拉利的高层们也必须确保他们请来的人能做得比瓦塞尔更好,并能改变他无法改变的东西。

    正如汉密尔顿所说,你不能一直重复同样的事情,却指望结果发生变化。

    法拉利世界耐力锦标赛的负责人安东内利·科莱塔长期以来一直与法拉利一级方程式的职位联系在一起,而且在马拉内罗的圈子里显然很受爱戴。

    但不可否认的是,随着霍纳重返车队老板或股东行列的努力迟迟未能实现,他在场边待的时间越长,他考虑把法拉利当作一个现实选择的可能性就越大。

    几年前,霍纳曾拒绝过法拉利的高层职位,尽管法拉利董事长约翰·埃尔坎亲自出面恳求。

    法拉利是否准备好再次向他发出邀请,看看这一次的答案会不会不同?

    英文原文

    Ferrari faces significant challenges as its 2026 Formula 1 season spirals: there's disharmony in the driver line-up, and a growing list of problems concerning how the team is operating, while Mercedes and Kimi Antonelli have just delivered the most embarrassing of blows at Ferrari's home race.

    As the pressure and scrutiny mounts, what's next for the drivers, the team at large, and Ferrari team principal Fred Vasseur - and how does ex-Red Bull Racing CEO Christian Horner potentially fit into this mess?

    As regards the drivers, Lewis Hamilton already made his feelings clear on what he feels needs to change to get Ferrari back on the right track.

    In Q2 at the the Italian Grand Prix, Hamilton made jibes about a lack of cooperation from Leclerc's side of the garage - which Hamilton felt almost led to a catastrophic elimination from the top-10 shootout, and there was clear disagreement about who was to blame for their Turn 1 incident in the race.

    Hamilton even made a point of defending his conduct since joining Ferrari, saying: "I've come into the team and tried to be respectful of space - and definitely not put the team in jeopardy. You have to speak to Fred about the other side."

    The clear inference being that Charles Leclerc is the problem here...

    So, has Ferrari lost control over its driver line-up?

    It certainly seems less harmonious than the Leclerc/Carlos Sainz combination that preceded it.

    Hamilton's resurgence in 2026 has potentially created a dynamic closer to the one Ferrari experienced with Alain Prost and Nigel Mansell back in 1989-90 - essentially two big beasts who want to have the team pulling for them.

    Leclerc probably thought he had Hamilton's number at the end of 2025, easily Hamilton's worst season in F1. But this year Hamilton has come out swinging, driving far better and talking about how much of a stamp he's had on the new car for this season, and how much more in tune he is with the team.

    Does Leclerc sense a shift in the political dynamic behind the scenes, and a need therefore to reassert himself - to ensure Hamilton doesn't essentially take the team off him?

    Leclerc is publicly dismissive of the idea there is a polarisation between him and Hamilton, and said he doesn't know who's "forcing" this narrative, but the past two races at Monza and Zandvoort are indicative of a team that is struggling to deal with these two particular drivers when they are close together on track, and one needs to be compromised to help the other.

    It just so happens on both of these recent occasions it's been Hamilton needing help from Leclerc and that help has not been forthcoming.

    Is the lack of assertiveness from Ferrari in dealing with this indicative of a team that fears favouring one over the other?

    It does seem that way. After Monza, Vasseur used a rather spurious comparison with McLaren's Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris from last year, saying if they'd favoured Piastri over Norris while Piastri was leading the standings then Max Verstappen would have snuck through to become champion, which completely ignores the fact McLaren still operated to its own 'Papaya rules'.

    As Hamilton said, Ferrari has no rules in that respect.

    Vasseur also maintains close relationships with both drivers. Is he paralysed between Ferrari's golden homegrown talent in Leclerc, and statistically the greatest F1 driver of all in Hamilton, whom Vasseur himself helped nurture in the junior categories?

    It does look from the outside like he's desperately trying to keep both parties happy while pleasing no one.

    It's a difficult position to be in, because Leclerc has also just recently agreed a new long-term contract with the team he's been tied to since he was a kid. That potentially makes him Ferrari's immoveable object - up against the irresistible force of F1's biggest and most marketable driver, suddenly once again driving at or near his best level.

    And if they're both performing at a high level there's no natural order of things on track to settle the matter, which adds pressure on Vasseur - as the man at the top - to make tough decisions that, so far, he seems to be avoiding.

    All the while the defeats stack up and Ferrari looks more exposed, which leads us to our next question: can Vasseur even survive this latest embarrassment?

    Hamilton was emphatic in the aftermath of Monza in singling out where change at Ferrari needs to come from: "Ultimately it comes from the top. It trickles down, decisions. And so, it starts with Fred."

    But this isn't Hamilton trying to throw Vasseur under the bus and kick start a hunt for a new team principal. It's instead a rallying call for Vasseur to assert his authority and make the changes Hamilton thinks are necessary for Ferrari to succeed.

    Hamilton understands the limit of his own influence, in "shouting repeatedly from the mountaintops", as he puts it. Ultimately, it's the team boss with the authority to shake things up.

    Hamilton understands that mistakes made in the battlefield - be it operational errors such as poor execution in qualifying, a strategy blunder in the race, or tension between drivers - are not primarily about the weaknesses of individuals.

    Instead, a team is a manifestation of the leadership structure put in place from the top: lines of reporting, lines of communications, who makes the decisions, and the quality of information that influence calls are all shaped from above.

    Fail to address deficits here and solutions only become plasters covering a wound. Cleaning this up all rests with Vasseur.

    The inference from Hamilton is Ferrari needs to start acting in a way that other big teams do. He feels the issues exposed in recent weeks require a proper reset if Ferrari is going to make the most of the remainder of this season.

    Ferrari's Monza trouble will undoubtedly have increased the pressure on Vasseur to take decisive action and address the concerns Hamilton is raising. And while Vasseur once again tried to brush off the disappointment, patience could be wearing thin after Ferrari, in Vasseur's words, "failed" the tifosi in the grandstands with such a limp performance in the Italian GP.

    Well-connected paddock sources suggest the optics of Monza - of a Ferrari disaster on the day Antonelli grabbed the hearts of the tifosi, in a Mercedes - have not gone down well with the Prancing Horse's top brass.

    The question now is whether this will trigger a review of Vasseur's position. There is certainly plenty of probing to do about many of the key decisions he's taken this year.

    Should Vasseur have fought harder to block the start procedure changes that wiped away the advantage his team gained with its smaller turbo?

    Was sacrificing ultimate engine power - through the turbo, operating temperatures and the exhaust wing - to boost chassis performance and game the Additional Development and Upgrade Opportunities system the right route to take in this engine-dominated, energy-starved formula?

    Should Ferrari have laid down a code of conduct for its drivers and been more decisive to try to maximise its title chances?

    Even if the conclusion is that better results went begging this year and a change of boss longer term should come, Ferrari's senior chiefs will have to be sure they are bringing someone in who can do a better job and change things that Vasseur cannot.

    As Hamilton said, you cannot keep doing the same thing and expect results to change.

    Ferrari's World Endurance Championship boss Antonello Coletta has long been linked to the F1 role, and is obviously well-loved in Maranello circles.

    But there's no denying that the longer Horner remains on the sidelines, as efforts to return as a team owner or shareholder fail to materialise, the greater the chances of him considering Ferrari could be a realistic option.

    Horner turned down the Ferrari top job several years ago, despite a personal plea from Ferrari chairman John Elkann.

    Would Ferrari be prepared to ask him again to find out if this time the answer is different?
