Team Ferrari, which has repeatedly announced its end in recent years Mercedes rule, this year is only a pale shadow of itself. They are just that fifth or sixth power, deep in the gray average and, what’s even weirder, they don’t even know why they’re slow and why novelties don’t fall on fertile ground. V Maranello is something seriously wrong.
Due to coronavirus regulations, they are Austrians na Red Bull Ringu thought to cup the first three on stage for the winners bring with remotely controlled bases. That's right Lewis Hamilton, Valtteri Bottas in Max Verstappen received their trophies in a procedure that took place as in slow motion. And this clip is many disappointed Scuderie fans used for their own purpose when they attributed to this scene: How kind of Ferrarito have their own race car SF1000 lent for the awarding of trophies. Still others knew to say that these pedestals covered a longer distance than they did Hag in Leclerc on the race. Further animations show garbage truck race, picture tractor 2021 in the Ferrari image and next to it Binotto, Leclerc and Sainz.
All of this, however, underscores that it is a myth Ferrari postal the target of ridicule. We can’t even imagine what’s going on in the grave Enza Ferrari. Yes now pardon it even comes from a rival camp like Mercedes, shows how severe it actually is around Ferrari. "We want a strong Ferrari. It's an amazing brand with working people,”He said, for example Toto wolff. But the Austrian will not experience it so quickly a powerful Ferrari. Even without the collision, the Reds would have struggled for a more visible ranking yesterday. Because besides Mercedesa in Red Bull Racing, are faster than Ferrari also McLaren in Racing Point, although the latter face a problem due to the suspicion that they are a copy of last year's Mercedes.
If Ferrari will not improve in the championship - they are currently fifth in the design championship -, this will be the worst ranking of the year 1981. A year earlier, they were even tenth among the teams! Then they are Italians literally standing in place at the time they were technical innovations one after another revolutionized Formula 1. 40 years later, this story is clearly repeating itself.
All Ferrari he did not show an amateurish image only during the race. After the collision, the cameras showed how it was binotto confused walked after paddockto find in makeshift living quarters Vettel in Leclerc, but soon abandoned his search. Similarly surprising is the fact that the boss Ferrari in their sparsely worded statements Leclerc he did not want to publicly blame Sunday’s collision. “Now is not the time to look for the culprit,”He told colleagues from RTL. Sounds honorable, no doubt, but only a week earlier binotto he had no problem criticizing publicly Vettel for its rotation.
Which fit the awkward picture Ferrari, is also the fact that the team as a whole canceled obligatorily collective press conference, because it is Hag after his television interviews he traveled home to Switzerland. So are Fr. Ferrari only racers and bosses of competing teams spoke. “We need Ferrari at the forefront, in a fight with other great teams. What we saw today and what happened a week ago is not good for us and it is also not good for Formula 1,”Is about weakness Ferrari he spoke anxiously Wolff. The Italian media was more specific. “Leclerc sank Vettl and Maranello fell into a dark crisis,”They wrote at Tuttosport. For colleagues from Corriere della Sera it is Ferrari yesterday paid a high price for Leclerc's aggressive behavior.
But almost scary is the fact of how safe and stable race cars are March in Red Bull Racing as well as McLaren on the wet track while he was Ferrari SF1000 almost impassable, making them so Hag as well as Leclerc fought not to fly off the track. The whole Italija feel the pain, how Ferrari, the former pride of the nation, is becoming these days a farce from a racing team and serves only as a basis for jokes about bad cars. Ferrari is lucky to have a z Leclerc at least one quality racer for a longer period. Because at the time, it’s hard to imagine it being Team interesting for high-ranking racers. And fortunately they are s Sainz already found a successor for Vettel.
But something is needed Ferrari considered good. Despite a collision in yesterday's race, both racers the teams did not initiate a new internal dispute. While it is Hag renounced the great accusations, he Leclerc which he himself labeled a fool and took the blame upon himself. binotto however, he tried endurance passwords again. “Now it’s time to stick together and react. We need to look ahead and I’m sure we have the right people at Maranello with whom we can improve our race car soon."
Will there be many typhoid still believing the words Binotta, we can doubt. At best, however, it gives them hope an example from the past. After the crisis at the beginning 80s flight, is Ferrari in years 1982 in 1983 won the constructor's title of champion. Because myth of Ferrari we can hope that the team will succeed in such a turnaround this time as well.
