There is something in the phrase about telling people only what they want to here. Is Charles Leclerc pulling the wool over the eyes of the Ferrari fans?
Prominent Ferrari driver Charles Leclerc has faced criticisms of misleading his devoted fans by saying what they want to hear. Despite his talent and experience with 140 starts over seven seasons, he has yet to secure an F1 drivers’ championship. Leclerc’s limited success, with only eight victories, can be attributed to the lack of a competitive car from Ferrari. The 2022 season saw Leclerc struggle against Max Verstappen, hindering his title chances. Ferrari’s underperformance this year against McLaren has widened the points gap, leaving Leclerc with slim chances of clinching a title. Former champion Jacques Villeneuve has challenged Leclerc’s dedication after the driver prioritized Ferrari’s success over personal victories, emphasizing a driver’s primary goal of winning.
