'Ferrari strategy team constantly drunk' - Fans baffled by Leclerc tactics
'Ferrari strategy team constantly drunk' - Fans baffled by Leclerc tactics
Ferrari fans were left outraged after their team's strategy meant Charles Leclerc only finished fourth at the British Grand Prix.
Scuderia supporters believed Leclerc had a chance to win the race and close the gap at the top of the drivers' championship, but the team decided against pitting the Monégasque when the safety car came out with 12 laps remaining.
Even during the race, fans were disappointed as both Ferraris were ahead of Lewis Hamilton, but despite Carlos Sainz his maiden F1 race, Leclerc missed out on the podium.
Ferrari has moved closer to Red Bull in the constructors' championship but is still 63 points adrift, while Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez remain first and second in the drivers' standings respectively.
Given the result for Leclerc, some supporters failed to hold back on Twitter, calling the "absolutely useless" and even worse.
Only Ferrari could simultaneously win a race and lose it. The Leclerc strategy is just baffling. #BritishGP

I'm glad to see that no matter how good Ferrari make their car, their strategy team is still constantly drunk

Ferrari are absolutely useless with their strategy

Leclerc is your faster driver
Fuckin prioritise him
Charles Leclerc probably should have won today but Ferrari's strategy cost him and he finished 4th. He drove brilliantly with a damaged car and then worn tyres after the safety car. His move on Hamilton around the outside at Copse was awesome. #F1 #BritishGP

Reminder:
— yiğit SAINZ WIN🌶 (@leclercsexual) July 3, 2022
Ferrari has been fucking up Leclerc’s races for the last 5 races
-Spain, DNF while leading
-Monaco, shit strategy
-Azerbaijan, DNF while leading
-Canada, got penalty
-Britain, shit strategy
Good strategy from Ferrari if you are a Hamilton fan.

Buzzing for the victory for Carlos Sainz. His first race winner in F1 but bad strategy from Ferrari yet again. Charles Leclerc with soft would have won easily. Think that Charles should had been prioritised since he is fighting for the Championship#BritishGP #F1 pic.twitter.com/PNcgyEj5Rj
