@Charles_Leclerc they muted your post race radio couple of times now this season :) i know you might not want to talk about that, but it’s frustrating for the fans so please could you kindly ask them to STOP @ScuderiaFerrari
"i didn't know anything about this (lewis complaining). i was a bit frustrated. you could hear it on the radio at the end too, so i think you know that when things don't go the way you want, there's always a bit of frustration involved, but it's not that bad."
we in fact did not hear the radio at the end as your team kindly muted it for us

mercedes fans want to k*ll eo, ferrari fans want to k*ll eo, maclaren fans want to k*ll eo, red bull fans want to k*ll themselves
welcome to the second half of 2026 season i guess
Last year, three drivers fought for the championship, two of them chasing their first title and two of those three were even teammates. Somehow, all three managed to fight their own battles without expecting their teammate to hand them positions constantly.
If they could do it, but a seven-time World Champion can’t? What a shame.
Luckily, Leclerc isn’t another Bottas. He’s here to win too, and he was the stronger Ferrari driver this weekend. If Hamilton wants to beat him, then overtake him. It really is that simple.
And considering how much Ferrari have already bent over backwards to accommodate Lewis - Carbon Industries brakes and all - complaining about a lack of support is quite something. Especially after he nearly turned the final laps into a spectacular double DNF for Ferrari.
What a team player.
Slower than his teammaye all race ✅ can't overtake him so ask a swap for track position and have priority ✅ pitted his teammate so he would be in front ✅ still slower than his teammate who caught him✅ can't catch george✅ under braking against charles ✅
fred: "the execution today wasn't perfect. we had a bad start with charles, we lost a position to piastri, then there was another bad pit stop with charles, and then there was a misunderstanding with lewis: we didn't want to talk on the radio, but at that stage we expected to go to the end (with lewis). we had Antonelli behind who was struggling, so they told us 'let's go to the end'.
that's why we didn't switch positions, because charles had to come in anyway. we probably could have done better, but it was also difficult to explain the situation to lewis without revealing our plan to the others, and that then led to making that decision. but i don't think we were missing anything because of that decision. the problem was probably more so yesterday in qualifying, because overall i think the pace was good. It was good in the sprint and again today. but finishing sixth after the first lap meant we found ourselves too far away"
