New year, same old Ferrari. The Maranello outfit suffered an extremely frustrating 2022 season, with multiple errors throughout the campaign. This forced the Italian team to bring a new boss in charge and make changes in various either key areas on the managerial front. These statement changes were expected, at least for starters, to eliminate any and all amateurish errors. However, the team is yet to learn from their mistakes from the past. We saw Charles Leclerc drive in utter silence for long stretches during the Spanish GP. The qualifying mishap in Canada with Carlos Sainz was another example. However, there was another incident in Canada that Sky journalist Ralf Schumacher exposed and criticized.

The German former F1 driver discussed and criticized Ferrari’s incompetence and their team orders to Sainz, especially after team boss Frederic Vasseur suggested every driver will be given an equal opportunity at the start of the season. The Italian team’s race strategies are not only making them look like amateurs but also costing them points. The team’s order for Sainz to not fight Leclerc during the race showcased that. This is exactly what Schumacher discussed during his conversation with Sky Sports as quoted by Formel1.de.

“The drivers scream more than the team,” says Schumacher. “The question is: how do they get together?” The German has also asked this scenario to “change that urgently, otherwise, the spiral will continue down.” (Translated by Google)

“Because also what is happening today with Carlos Sainz is… Sorry, that’s amateurish! That shouldn’t happen to a team like this,” he added.

These clumsy errors and poorly thought-out calls are also hampering their drivers’ trust in the team. This might also test the drivers’ loyalty toward the team.

Charles Leclerc might go weary of Ferrari’s consistent error in judgments

The Monegasque has only suffered while driving for the team, which is considered a perfect match for him. However, the wrong place and the wrong time is a scenario that breaks up many relationships. Schumacher believes Leclerc and Ferrari might suffer the same fate as the Monegasque might start to question his commitment to the team if this continues.

“There’s a lot of frustration, and I think you can feel this frustration. Then there’s the question somewhere as a driver that I have to ask myself: Do I fit in, do I stay constructive and work on things? Or do I not think so Is there more to it than the team making it? Then I would just have to look for something else,” suggested Schumacher.
