Charles Leclerc and Ferrari, a duo that a few years ago had all the Tifosi fans feeling excited for the future, have unfortunately not had a good run. While mistakes have been made on both ends, however, Ferrari’s recent blunders have left Leclerc and his fans very frustrated. With the recent talks of his contract extensions circulating, Ferrari’s latest teaser has not gone down well with the fans.

The 2023 season has been quite disastrous for Charles Leclerc, which was very much evident at the Brazilian Grand Prix 2023. With the hydraulics of the SF-23 failing during the formation lap of the race, Leclerc ultimately crashed out before the race even started. Moreover, with the season already being one to forget, this incident simply made the situation much worse at Ferrari.

With Charles Leclerc visibly frustrated with Ferrari and slowly building an image separated from the brand, news about his recent contract extension worth $215 million has been circulating. Considering that his contract is set to expire next year, fans have strongly urged Leclerc to move away from the Tifosi. This was quite evident in Ferrari’s latest teaser announcement on social media.

As the fans have been speculating about what the announcement could possibly be about, their comments were quite straightforward!

This fan has clearly lost all the trust in Ferrari. While the teaser could likely be related to the upcoming Las Vegas Grand Prix, given Ferrari’s tone-deaf approach, one can often struggle to predict what they might do next.

This fan seems ready to give up on the sport entirely if both drivers end up announcing their renewal. The impending expiration of both Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz‘s contracts in 2024 adds an extra layer of anticipation, making the upcoming season bound to be quite fascinating.

This fan too is also not looking forward to seeing Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz announce their contract extension with Ferrari. Let’s just all hope that the teaser announcement is truly about the Las Vegas GP livery and new race suits.

This hilarious tweet from this fan shows that how much people don’t want Leclerc to continue with Ferrari. So much so that they are willing to offer his salary from their own pockets!

This fan has lost all hope from the team and only expects the worst from Ferrari. And in all honesty, after the Brazilian Grand Prix, a lot of fans should have the same approach.
