Ferrari, patience over: Charles Leclerc challenged, Lewis Hamilton blocked

Before the start of the current season, there was great enthusiasm around the SF-25. The people of the Rossa, including the arrival of the seven-time World Champion, were certain that Ferrari would be big star in the World Championship. Instead, to date, only great disappointments have come.

The’latest at the Singapore GP where the Cavallino was a non-paying spectator on the track. This time, brake problems for the Leclerc-Hamilton duo. Post-race, team principal Frederic Vasseur spoke of “potential not extracted from the car”. A statement that infuriated many Rossa fans tired of always hearing excuses to explain the limitations of a badly conceived single-seater that never progressed during the year.

Charles Leclerc’s state of mind is worrying.

After yet another GP in which he could do nothing but watch the others fight for the top spots, he declared that he expects nothing more from this season finale (six GPs still to be played), as if to certify the’impossibility of competing with this SF-25.

Also very bad is Hamilton, who is crumbling record after record in Ferrari. Unfortunately, these are negative records. Never on the podium with the Rossa and at great risk of closing, for the first time, without ever finishing in the top three in a World Championship. The seven-time World Champion remained silent after the race. He probably ran out of words.
