The Ferrari Struggles: A Love-Hate Relationship

Ferrari, the once-mighty titan of Formula 1, seems to be wrestling with demons this season. Leclerc's talent is undeniable, but the Scuderia’s car isn’t making it easy for him. As Lewis Hamilton recently put it, he feels “sorry” for the Ferrari struggles. Let’s be real—who wouldn’t? It’s like watching your ex-date someone who’s clearly not good for them. The heartbreak is palpable.

With each passing race, it’s becoming clearer that Ferrari has some serious work to do.
