Ferrari chairman John Elkann had some controversial words for his drivers earlier this month.
Former F1 driver Anthony Davidson believes Lewis Hamilton may have been surprised by recent criticisms from chairman John Elkann. Elkann’s comments followed a disappointing Brazilian Grand Prix for Ferrari. Both Hamilton and Leclerc downplayed the impact of the remarks on their relationship with Elkann. Davidson suggested that Hamilton, in his first season with Ferrari, might have been taken aback by Elkann’s approach. Ferrari’s struggles have led them to fourth place in the constructors’ championship, with no race wins this season. Davidson criticized Elkann’s public scolding, suggesting the issue could have been handled more discreetly within the team.
