Can the 2022 season be Ferrari’s year?
Ferrari has been very impressive this year so far. Though it has only been three races, Ferrari has surely made a statement with its unmatched pace. The closest rival to Leclerc stayed about 5-6 seconds behind him throughout the Melbourne race. Max Verstappen, who won the Saudi Grand Prix over Leclerc, did not find it easy to defeat the Monegasque. Leclerc outsmarted him in various situations, while a last-minute move handed Max the victory.

Charles lost by half a second and was close to catching up to Verstappen. The Dutchman was so worried that it baffled him and he kept protesting about Leclerc not slowing down, even under the Yellow flags.
