We're not even halfway through the season yet and Leclerc has already made me regret to ever rating him so high, to the point of calling him WDC material.
I've never seen a driver make so many mistakes in a season. Not even Mazepin or Latifi and we're still halfway through the season. Unlike these drivers, Leclerc has a big troop to excuse him from these mistakes, always placing the blame on the team. 'Curse', 'team sabotage', 'pushing too hard' are always the classic excuses for bad driving.
Apart from this mistake in FP and maybe mistake in Austria quali? What other mistakes are worth noting here?
Be aware also Max had some mistakes that are worth mentioning in FPs and quali
I remember him spinning in Miami after like 5 minutes and his session was over. It was also a sprint weekend. It had no real influence on the end result, but nevertheless something like that can't happen to any F1 driver.
Leclerc was at a peak driving the first half of 2022. The auto was good, he was so good. But since than he completely fell apart.
At this point I really doubt if Leclerc will ever be able to fight for a world championship, thinking that he has to be consistent in like 20 from 24 races.
And the worst about this, that Sainz looks simply faster for the last couple of Grand Prix. The asset that Leclerc always had was his speed.
