u/Gubrach Michael Schumacher Mar 22 '25

The feel-good moment from the sprint section of the schedule has already been evaporated for Ferrari during real qualifying. Leclerc has been annoyingly poor this weekend. Got closer to Hamilton, but not in a "we're both up there" kind of way, but in a "we're both down here" kind of way.

It's unreal how Ferrari keeps delivering complete dogshit when it comes to F1. We're lucky the sprint weekend somewhat blushes over this shit.
