Reports focused on Ferrari’s on-track management and Charles Leclerc’s reaction during the United States Grand Prix weekend. Leclerc said the team knows the limit it must avoid, while he was also heard expressing frustration over team radio in qualifying at COTA.
One theme in Ferrari’s mid-season has been difficulty turning practice speed into qualifying results. Motorsport.com also said the team’s drivers have at times got in each other’s way on track, including situations where Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton were not as coordinated as they could have been when running different strategies.
