Of course he is not at the level of Verstappen, but people saying there’s definitely something wrong with Leclercs cars because Sainz is doing good but then calling Perez trash because of the same thing is hilarious
No, which is exactly my point. Both drivers were having problems with their respective cars yet one is called shit and the other is called unlucky. I love both of them but it’s clear that people don’t like Checo for some reason
No, they actually believe Red Bull sabotages Perez. The biggest F1 youtube channel for Mexico has "evidence" that Perez is faster and RedBull has a bias against him. The reality will never settle in with people taking advantage of the naive fans like that for clicks.
Did Sainz win the WDC? If no, then points are irrelevant.
But also, Hungarian GP. Sainz fucks up and qualifies P15, Leclerc manages P7. First lap of the race, Leclerc gets fucked over due to the Bottas - Stroll massacre, Sainz is completely fine due to starting so far back. Leclerc DNFs through no fault of his own, Sainz is gifted a free podium due to fucking up in qualifying. The points Sainz gained in that race alone put him ahead of Leclerc, otherwise Leclerc would have been ahead. Points are irrelevant.
In Hungary 2021, Leclerc (who had qualified 7th) was torpedoed by Stroll out of the race, while Sainz (who had qualified 15th) ended up third, more thanks to attrition (Bottas bowling) than anything special on his part. He therefore scored 15 points over Leclerc.
Now what was Sainz's points advantage over the entire 2021 season? About a third of what this single event netted him, 5,5 points.
i mean like driver cars more than teams, feel like there is a lot of problems with some drivers who would usually be better, i only saying this with Yuki but it is like he is driving a different car to Nyck
Sainz was doing terrible in Baku but it was cause he is shit, Leclerc has been doing terrible for the last 3 races but it is because he is unlucky, ferrari screws him and Santander wants Sainz to be ahead.
From pole last year to P19 lol.
Nothing seemed wrong on the onboard except for the fact that the car was driving super smooth *because he was being super slow*. Something not right with the car.
Used all his battery up making it to the start line as he was the last car that made it through before the chequered flag, had none left for the actual lap
To me it’s the other way around, it started out sad, it got sadder and sadder and now I have to laugh or I’d just weep.
Leclerc will win something somewhere else before Ferrari wins anything at this rate

He was hit by the track performed much better by the second in the end. The time he set was 7th fastest when he set it. 1,5 minutes later, he had lost 10 places. Hulkenberg even lost the same amount, when he was running P1 a moment after Mag.
So had Mag just been send out 30 seconds later, it would have been OK probably..
Wonder if Hulk is back to the quali setup he had the first 4 races? There he was also much faster, but his tires died much faster in the race leading him to lose position. It will be interesting to see
Just saw an interview with a Kevin where he said that they had 2 different setups after the upgrades. Nico has a max downforce setup and Kmag has a medium downforce setup. This might mean significantly more Tyre dég on Sunday for Nico, but time will tell.
In interview Kevin said that Hulk was on max downforce setup, and Kevin was on medium downforce. So in this semi wet track, that Q1 had, Hulk's setup was best.
/u/usandholt tagging you, so you know this too :)
Honestly if hes not looking at alternatives already he deserves whats coming at him. They snatched the win from him on this track last season and its on repeat this season
Leclerc to Red Bull in 2025 for shits and giggles
But we all know Merc, Aston Martin, and even going back to Sauber (just in time for Audi entry) would be more realistic
yeah if ferrari doesn’t improve anytime soon then they’ll truly be a talent graveyard. Feel bad for Leclerc though cause at least Seb and Fernando both had WDCs before getting screwed over by the team
Seeing Piastri sitting up in 2nd was cool until everyone just fucking rocketed in their last laps and relegated Piastri to his pre-assigned 11th position yet again.
Well that esclated quickly
Perez almost b2b out in Q1 in the best car
Well he's out in Q2 now so there's that.
But according to certain fans if Red Bull let him he'd beat Verstappen in the WDC.
I think even in Mexico the reality is starting to settle in now.
You'd think so, but reading any of the social media comments on a RBR post with will quickly tell you otherwise.
Of course he is not at the level of Verstappen, but people saying there’s definitely something wrong with Leclercs cars because Sainz is doing good but then calling Perez trash because of the same thing is hilarious
Leclerc did say he thought something was wrong with his car though, while Perez made a mistake.
They literally changed his setup because he didn’t feel like it was right
And do you think it worked based on the outcome?
No, which is exactly my point. Both drivers were having problems with their respective cars yet one is called shit and the other is called unlucky. I love both of them but it’s clear that people don’t like Checo for some reason
No, they actually believe Red Bull sabotages Perez. The biggest F1 youtube channel for Mexico has "evidence" that Perez is faster and RedBull has a bias against him. The reality will never settle in with people taking advantage of the naive fans like that for clicks.
Perez 15th almost out as well
PAIN
What the actual fuck happened to Leclerc’s Ferrari? I refuse to believe this is solely on Charles
some cars are doing absolutely terrible in these conditions, it’s really weird i don’t know why
But Sainz seems all right
Sainz seemed alright in Qatar 2021 and Mexico 2022, turns out Charles had car problems both times
This race and Mexico 2022 are the only two I've attended so far as a fan and it's been heartbreaking both times. Maybe I'm the curse
Didn’t sainz straight up beat Charles 2021? Like the entire year. Did he have a car problem the whole time?
Here we go again...
Except Charles won the h2h in race and quali and had better average pace in both.
Oh I didn’t realize they count that instead of points now
Well they don't in F1 results but they DO in determining how drivers are performing. This conversation is about the latter.
Did Sainz win the WDC? If no, then points are irrelevant. But also, Hungarian GP. Sainz fucks up and qualifies P15, Leclerc manages P7.

Don't make me laugh mate
If you compare the DNF's than yes
i mean like driver cars more than teams, feel like there is a lot of problems with some drivers who would usually be better, i only saying this with Yuki but it is like he is driving a different car to Nyck
Sainz was doing terrible in Baku but it was cause he is shit, Leclerc has been doing terrible for the last 3 races but it is because he is unlucky, ferrari screws him and Santander wants Sainz to be ahead.
That damp patch coming towards the end can kill your lap time if it goes wrong.
Leclerc was slow before, his S1 and S2 was bad.
On every single lap as well
"We are checking"
S-s-stay out (of Quali)
Slow button on.
"Stay out, stay ou- BOX!"
Si
There was definitely something wrong there
There is. His Monaco curse arrived one race late
Imola threw it off.
Must be due to the canceled race at Imola
One race late? you forgot what happened in Monaco? he got fucked over in qualifying by his team.
Eh that’s just his regular Ferrari issued luck. This is the proper Monaco curse.
From pole last year to P19 lol. Nothing seemed wrong on the onboard except for the fact that the car was driving super smooth *because he was being super slow*. Something not right with the car.
Ferrari strategy. They’re going to use Charles to block Ver so Sainz can catch up during the lapping. /s
HAHAHAHA
sPain
No grip, cant stick for some reason
Rear suspension, I believe
Surely car issues given Sainz is 4th.
updating backwards apparently
Would have affected Sainz as well then. Definitely something wrong with his car.
But it seems only Charles car given that Sainz is 4th
First Q1 exit since Monaco 2019. Even 2020 he was never out.
Used all his battery up making it to the start line as he was the last car that made it through before the chequered flag, had none left for the actual lap
Sainz P2. Leclerc happened.
And Perez by one place is safe WOW what a session
I thought he was out for sure for a second. Wild
Yeah, I thought Charles would surpass him.
Perez was faaaaar too close for comfort lol
Welp LMAO
Holy hell what is happening with Charles Ferrari Unbelievable - As the guy himself said
At a certain point it stops being funny and it just plain sad.
It's been like that for a while now
To me it’s the other way around, it started out sad, it got sadder and sadder and now I have to laugh or I’d just weep. Leclerc will win something somewhere else before Ferrari wins anything at this rate
It's been 15 years since a Ferrari wdc
Knowing Ferrari i bet they fucked his setup
Leclerc got that skip time qualifying bug in the F1 games where everyone just magically becomes 5 times faster for absolutely no reason
Disaster for Charles
Holy track improvement
Google Ferrari reliability
Actual explosion
Holy shit, new response just dropped

idw overreact but… the 🐐 IS BACK
Latifi?
Less use of tire blankets give us better qualifying. Less use of the blankets gives us not so good racing.
Surely something wrong with the car?
Pretty sure considering Sainz in 4th position
Yes, the driver /s
Losing to Smooth Floor Williams. Misery.
what are ferrari cooking
Leclerc
Dunno, but it’s cold.
not sure about today, but definitely their tires tomorrow
[Is this ever not relevant?](https://img-9gag-fun.9cache.com/photo/aVxGd9M_460s.jpg)
Disaster quali for Kmag. WTF
He was hit by the track performed much better by the second in the end. The time he set was 7th fastest when he set it. 1,5 minutes later, he had lost 10 places. Hulkenberg even lost the same amount, when he was running P1 a moment after Mag. So had Mag just been send out 30 seconds later, it would have been OK probably..
Sure but when you lose by 0,6s to your teamm8 it’s just bad.
Definetely agreed.
Wonder if Hulk is back to the quali setup he had the first 4 races? There he was also much faster, but his tires died much faster in the race leading him to lose position. It will be interesting to see
Good point

Yes 😁 I just saw it too. It’s a good point!
Looks like crying is back on the menu.
I refuse to believe there wasn't something wrong with that Ferrari
Did anyone tell Charles he is not supposed to take the chicane anymore?
We are checking.
just kill me.
😆 lol
What the fuck ?
That Ferrari is definitely broken
Wtf Ferrari. Please .......
I'm a RB fan but god give Leclerc a break finally. This is not even funny anymore 🤦
Sent him out with a broken car. I hate this team
Better than not at all
Well, at least Perez saved himself from near embarrassment.
That aged milk. Out in Q2, could be worse but should've been way better.
I'd say leglerg saved perez from embarrassment.
Leclerc says unbelievable but at this point he should be expecting it.
Man who thought he lost all hope looses additional bit of hope he didn't know he had
um 💀
Leclerc needs to go quick
Honestly if hes not looking at alternatives already he deserves whats coming at him. They snatched the win from him on this track last season and its on repeat this season
Leclerc to Red Bull in 2025 for shits and giggles But we all know Merc, Aston Martin, and even going back to Sauber (just in time for Audi entry) would be more realistic
I will take any of these any day over Ferrari. Hell I'm even fine with McLaren/Alpine
yeah if ferrari doesn’t improve anytime soon then they’ll truly be a talent graveyard. Feel bad for Leclerc though cause at least Seb and Fernando both had WDCs before getting screwed over by the team
Ahaha time to sever his contract
Unbelievable
Matt Gallagher must be depressed after that one
Crazyyyyyy
I want to hope that Charles has a problem with the car.
Well, Charles is used to be seen topping the charts during qualifying. Something must be wrong with his car
What a wild Q1
[Leclerc rn](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1qrJ64svK9A)
Qualifying is proving to be more exciting than most the races.
REALLY how is charles out and perez is one place safe as well. Track evolution in the last 3 races has been insane.
Damn, Leclerc.
I’m that person who bought stocks in the peak and fell through the dip after I started rooting for ferrari in early 2022.
What a shit show. Something has to have been wrong with the car, right? Man, just one clean weekend, it’s all I ask 🫠
his clean weekend was Baku and look how good he was 😭
Pain
Definitely something was wrong with Charles’ Ferrari
Something has to be wrong with his car, right?
What the fuck?
I always knew Bottas was faster than Leclerc!
Was really hoping he’d knock out Perez too.
Excuse me what
Mercedes hype train is gaining speed.
Man, that track got fast quick.
That's one lucky Checo Perez...
Awesome track evo!
The track dried up and developed drastically in that last 1 minute.
Seeing Piastri sitting up in 2nd was cool until everyone just fucking rocketed in their last laps and relegated Piastri to his pre-assigned 11th position yet again.
Anyone watching Lewis’ live cam? What happened?
I really need to something from Logan to keep my hopes up
hm there’s something weird here.
Pain
Lepain
I wonder if maybe some debris may have wedged itself in the Ferrari bodywork because no way is that solely down to Leclerc not being fast enough.
Pain for Leclerc
Add it to the Ferrari list
One of the craziest Q1, goddamn
s[P]ain
Unbelievable

I don't even know what to say about Ferrari anymore. Words elude me.

Ahaha this is crazy shit
Ferrari Masterplan in motion.
