“It’s uphill from now and it’s clear that only unity can help us turn that situation around in the last 3 races.”
Charles Leclerc has emphasized the importance of unity within Ferrari in the aftermath of a challenging weekend at the Sao Paulo Grand Prix, where both Ferrari cars retired from the race.
The Monegasque driver’s race was cut short due to a collision that damaged his front suspension and caused his front-left tyre to come off.
Meanwhile, Lewis Hamilton also faced difficulties at Interlagos, failing to secure a top 10 placement in qualifying and encountering substantial damage in two first-lap collisions during the grand prix.
Following Ferrari’s drop to fourth in the constructors’ championship, chairman John Elkann urged Leclerc and Hamilton to focus on driving and work as a united team to achieve success.
In response, Leclerc stressed the need for unity moving forward and acknowledged the team’s uphill battle in the remaining races to contend for the runner-up spot in the constructors’ standings.
