If Ferrari shows up next year with the same tire issues as this season, I think I'll be inconsolable from my disappointment. :lol: Unless Leclerc falls off heavily in the last few races, I believe this will be his best season. Ferrari need to capitalize on the line up they have next year.

2024 has been his most consistent season and biggest gap to Carlos, could be partially down to Carlos being on his way out, but it's very impressive.

As for 2022, France and Imola were the 2 clear mistakes made by Charles, on the other hand we have Monaco, Silverstone(team still won that one), Hungary, other smaller team mistakes, many reliability problems... Spain, Baku...

I mean, the reason we lost 2022 was primarily because Red Bull had a much faster car in races during the second half of the season - and that, likely but never confirmed, is because of the new TD (which, arguably again, was also Binotto’s fault for not blocking or even using the veto) - but the strategy and reliability issues didn’t help. A couple of errors from Leclerc (Imola and France) were no more than either Max or Lewis made the prior year.
From the outside he sure didn't seem to fight that thing too hard, very quiet about it.
Horner was the one that was loud in opposition to this rule.

That plank nerf was in a TD that was about safety, and veto can't be used when it comes to safety.
FORZA FERRARI!

Brilliant move by Toto Wolf at the time but I think the hope was to nerf the RB car as well, which never happened...

Fair point - that said, I think they could have successfully, legally argued that it was absolutely nothing to do with safety (given it wasn’t) and therefore that the veto should apply. One way or the other, he needed to do everything in his power to fight it as hard as possible, which certainly does not seem to have been the case.
