the yearning from some Charles fans to go to an unproven team is fascinating to me. like i’m also unhappy with the way things have gone at Ferrari and been very vocal, but Ferrari mostly needs to build a car at this point. Aston needs to fix literally everything

so there were rumors circulating at the time of Newey leaving Red Bull that he wanted power and Ferrari didn’t like that, hence no hiring him. seemingly, Aston was the only one willing to give him that.

for all the shit Ferrari has received for their operations, i’m glad they didn’t do this

peace
love

Desperate to know what F1 season Elkann is watching cause wtf is he talking about, or at least what driver interviews he is listening to cause neither driver has talked shit about the mechanics or engineers and for the most part have blamed themselves for problems they have faced.

Ferrari Wins When Its Chairman is Seen, Not Heard In a season where the team has done its best to protect itself from the narrative-hungry media, using the press to drive a wedge between…

In a season where the team has done its best to protect itself from the narrative-hungry media, using the press to drive a wedge between the team and its drivers makes John Elkann look like the out-of-touch billionaire he is.

I don't think this is gonna go through Charles' head but he could not be blamed if he wanted to leave after hearing Elkann say this stuff. It's not just some words. Charles went through HELL in 2022, had offers to leave, and chose to trust Ferrari when Ferrari did not deserve any of his trust. 1/

Charles has had to fend off rumors for MONTHS that he’s leaving by saying he loves Ferrari so much and wants to stay and win a title with them and the fucking Chairman just throws some bullshit statement out to the media claiming the drivers need to love Ferrari more? go do some more fraud loser

unless he can provide actual insight into the failings of the operation he has been overseeing since 2018. Until then, keep your mouth shut.

Everyone needs to read this article because no one could have said it better 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

He is out of touch by choice. He can choose to pay close attention to the details of the operations of his Formula 1 team if he’ d like. Instead Elkann hides behind the curtains only to appear when the opportunity to place blame in the media serves him best. But the Chairman should be seen not heard

going to continue yelling this from the rooftops but it's not that lewis suddenly lost the ability to drive. it's that charles' ability to adapt to and extract miracles out of subpar cars is almost unmatched on the grid.

Sometimes I wonder how those parents who want full control of their children's weddings get to that point of their lives and then I see people on social media give their unwanted opinions on whether a dog that isn't theirs should have been in a proposal that also isn't theirs and suddenly 2+2 is 4

*yeehaw intensifies*

He will drag them to victory, kicking snd screaming 😂

have yo admire a man who is hell bent of making it work no matter how hard it gets, there is just something about this that gets to me every single time!!

There’s only Ferrari. Charles was asked to comment on rumours suggesting he might be considering other teams for his future. “There are a lot of rumours, but the truth is the same as I’ve always said, I’m in love with Ferrari, I want to win with the Scuderia, and we’re all pushing as hard as we can to be ready when the new technical cycle begins next year,” he said. “So as far as I’m concerned, there’s only Ferrari.”

not sure how many more times he needs to stay this for people to understand. this isn’t PR. this is exactly how he feels.

if you’re his fan, he is not sending you subliminal messages through social media or facial expressions. you have to accept his stubbornness to get Ferrari back to the top.

nothing makes me more mad than Binotto revisionism. during his time as team principal, he:

- drove Vettel away by speaking ill about him through the media
- never prioritized drivers properly
- oversaw the production of 3 mid to shit cars (SF-1000, SF-21, SF-23) and derailed the F1-75

“I wanted to break everything, I was not well,” Leclerc said. “Honestly, I had done everything to perfection. It was a perfect weekend. I qualified on pole position, in the race we had incredible pace. So there you go, finishing the race in fourth position, it was not easy.”

Asked as to how he will regroup prior to then, he replied: "I'm going to close myself at home and only go out when I have [to catch] the plane to go to Budapest. "I just want to stay alone."

Whenever I think I'm failing at life at least I can tell myself I'm not getting paid on X to praise Binotto, the man who caused the guy I claim to be a fan of to say shit like this. And there's worse, for my own sanity I just decided to not go for the France 22 ones

Papaya rules are the F1 equivalent of giving tablets to toddlers. You don't wanna do the work of managing your drivers, you're just hoping they do it on their own.

McLaren’s Papaya Rules have gone rotten Papaya rules have dominated conversations around McLaren this season, but who have they really benefitted?

went on a rant

Everyone has lost their marbles in F1. It's the year of the lord 2025 and we have the grandpas of the grid beefing . Russell's parading his nipples. The McLarens are combusting. Leclerc's having a daily crashout. The rookies are fried. Max is making grudge lists.

Couldn’t have said it any better 👏🏻👏🏻

As someone who has been a tifosa for a long time, I don't want people to ever feel like they can't be supporters of this team because they've only been here for a few months. I don't want the community around this team to not be welcoming to anyone who wants to support Ferrari 1/

If shit hits the fan in Mclaren, which atp seems a when not an if, journalists are either gonna pretend they don't see it or those who acknowledge it are gonna pretend it came out of nowhere. A team where a driver can very publicly mock his teammate's struggles and his teammate is the one who's 1/

like i said: hot

People finding ways to be mad at Ferrari when McLaren had an absolute clownshow of a team situation today is just beyond me

ONE LAST THING!!!

ferrari FAMOUSLY do not like to air their problems over the radio. it’s not bc they don’t know what’s going on or they’re “avoiding accountability”, it’s bc they are protecting their strategies, strengths AND weaknesses from the competition. who can and will exploit what they know
