2024 Scuderia Ferrari F1 Team

8 consecutive sessions that Leclerc is ahead of Sainz in qualifying.

Incredible considering how quick Carlos is, especially over one lap despite the media absolutely not highlighting this.

As expected.

There's nothing in those quotes that warrant some of the reactions here IMO.

My point was the commentators were pushing a specific narrative the other day, and they did exactly what i said today

Redbull was managing and still ahead

No one expected to compete with RB.
Our most optimistic expectations were to be within 0.3s which would have been likely with Leclerc driving a normal car.

Please explain to me how Charles is supposed to fix the mechanical issues with his car? Why is there an insinuation that Charles is at fault for all of this? The quotes are just uninformed and lazy.

Tyre deg shows that there’s more pace in the car! Or that some tyre deg performance could be traded. Great leaps made from 2023 there!

I don't think its lazy to suggest Charles' disproportionate number of mechanical issues could be due to his driving technique, maybe Carlos handles the car with more finesse to avoid running into all these problems. It's worth bringing it up instead of blaming it on luck all the time.

It's not about luck.
Also, we are talking about a problem occurred in the first lap of the race already. The previous issue occurred in the formation lap, on the other hand. Not much driving in these 2 instances

I don't know

The trolling won’t stop until morale improves. There are other team threads folks, don’t all come here.

In which part of Charles driving technique can he adapt to prevent a battery issue, a wiring harness issue, a brake thermal imbalance issue and an issue with his throttle pedal??

Did he turn on the car? He should try driving with the car off like the others do

It's hilarious that you think an issue which started on lap 1 of race 1 was caused by driving style. Also, considering their driving styles(and telemetry), there is no way Carlos handles the car with more finesse. It's just not true. Please be serious.

To me, it's absolutely not normal.

You have Sainz that did a very good job in key overtakes and how he put pressure on Perez.
Then you have Leclerc who managed a very serious issue extremely well, being only 0.3s on avg slower than his quick teammate.

Instead of praising both for their races, what the commentators said? "Leclerc is stupid"

Exactly this... Sainz had pretty good pace today, Charles did very well managing a tough problem. Ultimately, given the cards they were dealt, they maximized the result. Why do we need to bring Charles down for that lmao.

[CouncilorIrissa]

Because they Ferrari's first driver, whoever that might be, is the media's favourite punching bag, always has been.

[CouncilorIrissa]

The pit crew is off to a good start as well.

[Vinlarr89]

For me there’s a reason in Ferrari choosing Leclerc over Sainz, and that is telling in the post race interviews.

Sainz is positive and upbeat, a P3 is a good result and the car feels so much better.

Charles, who has just had a P4 and got the car there despite some horrendous issues with the car is fuming. To him that is not acceptable. Anything other than challenging for the win isn’t good enough.

Mentality.
