Former Ferrari Boss Predicts Major Headaches for the Team in Handling Leclerc and Sainz

Scuderia Ferrari are the most successful Formula 1 constructors in the history of the sport, not so much lately.  The team did not lead a single lap this whole season. They recorded their worst outing since 1980.

Sebastian Vettel bid the Maranello-based outfit adieu after spending 6 years trying to win a championship with them. Unfortunately, the German was not fated to reach the pinnacle of the sport wearing their iconic scarlet overalls.

Ferrari announced earlier this season that Vettel will not continue with Ferrari. Carlos Sainz was replacing the German as Vettel was thrown a lifeline by Aston Martin. Meanwhile, the former President, Montezemolo, shared his opinion about the fresh pair at Ferrari.

He said, “Leclerc? A great talent, with a competitive car can go very fast and bring important results, and it is fitting to have brought home a driver like Sainz.

“I believe that the management of the two drivers, however, could be more complicated than it seems now.”

A new start for Ferrari next season

Ferrari will surely hope that they can turn things around next season. Realistically, they won’t be fighting for the championship; however, they will hope to fight for the podium more consistently.

According to a report, Ferrari might find the leader in Carlos Sainz. The Spaniard and Leclerc will play a huge role in Ferrari’s recovery.

According to the report, Lawrence Barretto said, “He’s going to move to Italy and spend as much time as he can at the factory and he’s going to embed himself in there. I think when they see that hunger, they’re going to want to try and build on that.”

Ferrari is not used to scrapping in the mid-field. It is unusual for anyone to see the Formula 1 red devils not fighting for wins. Sainz pointed out that he will be the first one to get in the factory, pushing to find more power in the power unit.

The road will be long and challenging; however, if any constructor has what it takes to emerge triumphant in the face of such adversity, it is Ferrari.
