A race. Just one race and the atmosphere at Ferrari seems to be completely stifling. the march of Mattia Binotto, far from calming the waters, it has served no purpose due to an SF-23 that has not exactly been born in the best way. In Bahrain, the seams of a car that goes just as well as in 2022 at one lap and that in a long run it goes just as regular than last year. Even Aston Martin seems to be ahead.
The car directly eats the wheels. As soon as a few turns have passed, the very high degradation causes that the times of both Leclerc and Sainz do not stop rising while those of the other rivals Either they are maintained or they even improve due to the lower gasoline load. And this is something that worries, and a lot, to Charles Leclerc.
Even more seeing that reliability problems are still there. What weighed down last year on Ferrari is present, and the Monegasque had to retire due to a problem after changing the car’s batteries even before the test.
The most curious thing is that they can only use two different ones in the same World Cup, and I could already receive a penalty in Saudi Arabia, second World Grand Prix.
Leclerc has already spoken with the big boss
Such is the situation that, according to reports ‘La Gazzetta dello Sport’, Charles Leclerc would have already met with Elkann, the great boss of the ‘Scuderia’, to convey his doubts regarding the Ferrari project.
Because, let’s not forget, the Monegasque and Verstappen they were great rivals in karting, and now Max, if he wins this World Cup, can have three to his credit since he He’s at Red Bull while Leclerc can hardly add a runner-up.
And the leader of the SF-23 goes to McLaren…
In addition, everything that surrounds the team does not invite optimism. David Sanchez, leader of the Sf-23 concept, has left the ‘Scuderia’ and Except for a major surprise, it will end at McLaren with Andrea Stella.
This, together with the marches of Gino Rosato and Jonathan Giacobazzi, and the doubts that Inaki Rueda on whether or not to continue after being relegated from the racing wall to the remote garage in Maranello, only add to the problems of a team that has long lived in chaos.
Chaos, a constant
That he has not won a Drivers’ World Championship since 2007, and that he has not tasted anything in constructors since 2008. It’s already 15 years since the last great success of what is, by history, the great team in the entire history of F1.
