He doesn’t get enough flack for throwing 3 years down the drain all because he thought it was a good idea to run an illegal engine and was dumb enough to get caught actually
La cosa triste è che quando Lewis l’anno scorso era in grandissima difficolta e a Charles chiedevano del h2h, lui lo difendeva sempre dicendo che era un confronto ingiusto, perché Lewis stava affrontando problemi che non dipendevano da lui. Lewis invece fa l’opposto. È triste
I think you’re all going crazy, I need to remind you of a few things.
🇺🇸 Miami: he has an incredible weekend, he even leads the race, but there isn’t enough performance in the car to keep the lead, he dominates his teammate all weekend, I think there was even a 30-second gap before the mistake on the final lap. Yes, he made a mistake, and it’s 100% his fault, he took responsibility.
🇨🇦 Canada: difficult weekend, he has brakes issues all weekend, he only makes one mistake during the race, and Lewis made the same mistake, so nothing more to add. We all know Leclerc’s strength is braking and as Vanzini said: “If you remove Charles’ braking, you remove his soul.”
🇲🇨 Monaco: In Monaco, he still has the same brakes issues. Yes, he chose to keep the Brembos and that’s completely logical, he’s not going to change brakes on a circuit where confidence in braking is extremely important, and especially he wanted to know whether the issue was just the setup or the brakes discs directly. In quali, he makes a mistake by trying to push too hard with brakes that are not good for him. In the race, he had a better pace than his teammate and he should have finished ahead of him if Ferrari hadn’t messed him up with the strategy. At the SC restart, he crashes, and it’s not a mistake like some people try to make it out to be, just the brakes deciding to stop working.
🇪🇸 Barcelona: In Spain, he is immediately in the rhythm with his new brakes discs, he is very very fast. He finds the right setup to make the car work, Lewis therefore decides to copy it because he was struggling in FP2 & FP3. In quali, he has very good pace, similar to Lewis, but in Q3 he makes, yes, a mistake, his second mistake since Miami. In the race, he has a very good race, he has excellent pace, unfortunately he is hit by a reliability issue that forces him to retire.
🇦🇹 Austria: He misses FP1, in FP2 the car simply doesn’t work, the setup is bad just like Lewis, they both have the same issues, the car isn’t working and the engine deficit is too big on a track like this with very few corners. Despite that, he manages to finish ahead of his teammate in quali and logically he should have had the pole position, but the FIA decided otherwise. In the race, in the opening laps, he has an issue with the turbo + the battle with Lewis and others destroyed his tyres, which practically ruined his race because he had no pace after that, the car wasn’t in the right setup window this weekend, and Charles paid the price for it.
Basically, what makes me laugh is that when he doesn’t finish a race because of a mistake or a problem, it’s “he’s under pressure, he’s bad, this and that…”, and when he finishes the race it’s “it’s not possible, he’s really bad, still under pressure”. At some point you have to choose. The last 5 races are a phenomenal series of circumstances that led us to this situation today. Yes, he made 2 mistakes, but Ferrari also made mistakes, and he was also unlucky. He is adapting little by little, it’s not easy to get back into rhythm with new brakes on a new circuit. So please, can we stop these bullshit debates because you all know very well that a Leclerc who is not comfortable in his car = a driver who will give everything to try to mask it. If you’re tired of him, stop supporting him, support another driver, but we don’t need your tweets to know whether you keep supporting him or not.
He only made 2 mistakes in 5 races, so if you want to talk about a crisis, go ahead and talk. In any case, the one who just extended his contract until 2030 doesn’t feel any crisis because of his driving 😘

there was a lot going wrong today. at first, charles apparently had issues with his turbo and that cost him 2 positions. the mercedes and red bull were obviously faster (and were only behind us due to max's crash yesterday). we were bad with the deg, the strategy was questionable (for both drivers) and there was no pace.
charles having to remove -10 from his wing to try and get a better car is crazy 😭
é sempre engraçado quando as pessoas descobrem que ele é só um babaca que finge ser o mais ético do mundo
“ele anda com o regulamento embaixo do braço” e só questiona a fia quando e benéfico pra ele e aprova as decisões questionáveis quando pasma também é beneficiado
Of course Charles’ car is malfunctioning again but you won’t see them reporting that because they’d much rather run with the narrative that he is washed and overrated and pales in comparison to Lewis🥴
Kibum directly mentioning Sherlock (SHINee) and Sherlock (Benedict Cumberbatch TV show) is so funny considering the Tumblr thing of Sherlock TV fandom being annoyed that SHINee and "green-haired boy" (Kibum) invaded the hashtag 😂
