“F1 needs Ferrari much more than Ferrari needs F1.” These words by Toto Wolff always stand true showing us the huge legacy Enzo Ferrari built for the Scarlet Red brand. It was a passion for flawlessness and a drive for achievement that helped him deliver it. However, while possessing the same passion what if time and destiny don’t favor your diligent efforts? The results are agony that keeps recurring. Similar to what one of the former Ferrari bosses has been going through & lamenting as the legendary Scuderia has lost in recent years, despite having a talent like Charles Leclerc. Agree or not, it does put a question mark on the legacy of Old Enzo!

With his own hands, Enzo Ferrari founded the Ferrari empire and left an impression by imprinting the color “Red” in every child’s consciousness when they think of cars. The Prancing Horse is still regarded as a great squad as a result of his work and time. However, the side that dominated the tracks and attracted the most fans while Michael Schumacher was driving it is now the one that is in trouble.

Now, the “Drinks team” is consistently defeating the big brand. Even so, losing is still a possibility in every sport but the idea of celebrating even the tiniest success hasn’t gone well with the former Ferrari chief Luca Cordero di Montezemolo. Ferrari has been close to winning the championship during the past 15 years, but the drought hasn’t ended and with each passing year, the hopes of Ferrari and its supporters have only been crushed. Where Charles Leclerc could have ended the drought last year, the team suffered from strategic errors and unanticipated reliability problems.

In contrast, this year the team has struggled to even reach the top 5 spots. Luca Cordero di Montezemolo, the former chairman of Ferrari, has been deeply hurt by this failure. He asserted that the achievements of Charles Leclerc & Co, who have been celebrating “third position” in the Belgian GP, unquestionably amount to a lower standard than what Enzo ever imagined. Since the founder was himself one of the few Italian racing champions. Montezemelo stated during his conversation with Quotidiano, ” You know what I’m sorry about? That we celebrate for a third place, like Spa. This is not from Ferrari and the Old Man would not have accepted it. Never.” [Translated Via Google]

Michael Schumacher’s Boss Relieves Charles Leclerc to Blame Ferrari for Ruining Historic Legacy

Ferrari certainly has potential, as evidenced by the performances of both of its drivers. However, given that Leclerc is a little faster than Sainz, the issue of why the man with arguably the same level of brilliance as Max Verstappen suffered so much constantly emerges. And it appears that the true explanation has now been discovered.

Despite being a promising talent, why does Charles Leclerc have 0 championships?

Charles Leclerc exudes the potential and dedication necessary to win the Formula 1 Championship. The reality, however, has been far harsher as the Monegasques’ title tally also doesn’t do justice to his ability. The Ferrari driver has collected only 27 podiums and 5 Grand Prix wins thus far.

Although the 25-year-old has consistently displayed exceptional potential since joining Ferrari, and had showcased the title by giving a tough bout to Sebastian Vettel his career at the Scuderia hasn’t been illustrious. However, the reason has now been disclosed on The Race F1 podcast.

The Race journalist stated while mentioning the cause, “They (Ferrari) do have the speed, they’re not bad. It’s just that on Sunday anything can happen, that’s the thing about it. From tire choice to strategery to just actual lap time, anything can happen. You just never know with Ferrari what’s going to happen and that’s really been the downfall, to be honest.”

Now that there have been positive words about a contract extension of Charles Leclerc with Ferrari can the Prancing Horse devote a little more time to evaluate a best course of action?
