Ferrari achieved this season his achievements so far They are not particularly worth mentioning. Although Ferrari was still able to win races last year, this year their car was very unsuccessful, and Charles Leclerc felt the problem very early on.
The Monaco driver has only managed 3 podium finishes in 12 races, with his best result being a second place in Austria. With this, Leclerc is only fifth in the individual, his teammate, Carlos Sainz He is currently seventh without a podium, so the Reds have plenty of room for improvement.
The Italian press was able to broadcast details of Leclerc’s new Ferrari contract
Although Leclerc was able to go into the summer break with good feelings with his third place at the Belgian Grand Prix, the youngster from Monaco already felt after the first tests that this year’s car would be a step backward compared to last year’s build.
“During the first laps I felt strange behind the wheel – Leclerc’s words could be read in the Corriere della Sera pillars. “Something was not right with the balance, and that was just the beginning, because later it also became clear that the performance was not like last year.”
“Three podiums is a very nice thing, but I didn’t enjoy it at all. Last year’s experiences [amikor még futamgyőzelmekért harcolhattunk] Still very fresh. We shouldn’t be satisfied with second or third place because Ferrari deserves to win.”
In contrast, Red Bull drivers won all of the first 12 races of the season, and this trend is unlikely to change seriously in the second half of the season. While the RB19 was considered a well-running car from the first race, the competitors, including Ferrari, were running into minor and major problems and needed serious time to fix them.
