When I dream of being world champion one day, in my mind I wear a red racing suit and get out of a red car.” Said Charles Leclerc, a Ferrari driver who wanted to win a championship in the Red suit. The 25-year-old, however, appears to be having a difficult time right now, and at a bay with his dream to come true. Reason? The same strategic errors led to Ferrari’s collapse. And soon after being closely associated with Mercedes, Leclerc is now the subject of a shocking Prediction. However, it has only come to light as a result of Monegasque’s puzzling social media action. So what step did Leclerc take in order to end up with this startling prediction?

It will be safe to say that Ferrari has regressed after once reaching the highest points, where they were found competing at the top, with some repeated mistakes. Ferrari’s poor judgment was on full display at the Canadian Grand Prix, as they made a tactical error involving Charles Leclerc and failed to move him to Q3 as a result. While on the other hand, Ferrari’s competitors, Mercedes and Aston Martin, appear to be making significant progress.

While Ferrari’s driver had been having a terrible season, he was extensively linked to switching to Mercedes, where he was supposed to replace Sir Lewis Hamilton, and it was rumored that the Prancing Horse was willing to offer the Mercedes ace $49,000,000. However, the speculation was rejected as false by both sides. Even though the maneuver was a waste of time, Leclerc’s own conduct has led to a startling prediction.

In this world of controversy and high-profile news, Leclerc followed the rival Aston Martin’s account just 16 days ago. This action might be seen as Leclerc’s interest in the Silverstone-based squad. Ralf Schumacher, known for his candor, highlighted the prospect of Leclerc joining Aston Martin during an interview with Sky Germany. He said, So far, there have only been Mercedes and Red Bull as potential options.”

He added, “But I believe a strong candidate is also Aston Martin, as they also need to look around. Fernando Alonso will have another year after that. Who knows, [Lawrence Stroll’s] son doesn’t fulfil the season goals, they may need to bring in another strong driver for the future, building alongside Fernando Alonso. Accordingly, that would be a logical possibility for Charles Leclerc, also considering the Honda partnership eventually.”

Leclerc has a deal with Ferrari that runs through the end of 2024. However, thus far, his belief in the group hasn’t produced great outcomes. It’s taking forever for the Prancing Horse to put the team at the top due to persistent failure and difficulties in identifying the true problem. Amidst all this, a former Ferrari manager offered his opinion on Charles Leclerc’s future with a team, and it wasn’t the Scuderia.

Due to this issue, there have been rumors that Leclerc may be prepared to depart. Mercedes was involved at first, and recently Astin Martin has been on the cards. However, a former Ferrari manager named Peter Windsor has now voiced his opinion on the possibility of the Monaco Native leaving Ferrari, for a midfield team. Windsor said during the live stream on his YouTube channel, “The big figure there is Charles Leclerc. And he’ll be wanting either Ferrari to magically get their act together and the car to be really quick, or he’ll be thinking [about leaving].”

Later he added, “He may even be thinking, ‘Alpine might be better than this lot in terms of my driving and doing what I know I can do. Look at them – top 10 every Q3 now’. He might be thinking like that. He might be that desperate.”
