Ferrari's F1 title drought looks set to continue after a catalogue of errors in 2022. 📝 mattkewF1 explains what the Scuderia must do to be a genuine force in a title battle ⬇️
When do we start saying it’s all over? That any remaining hope of Charles Leclerc taking the 2022 Formula 1 title battle with Max Verstappen down to the wire has been snuffed out. Perhaps lap 39 of the Hungarian Grand Prix last weekend was a good place to call time. That’s when Ferrari committed its latest strategy shocker and pitted Leclerc bafflingly for a set of hard tyres that were about as suited to the dry conditions as “wets”, so reckoned Lando Norris.
As a result, Leclerc finished sixth in a race won by Verstappen, when the red machine had lined up on the grid in third and the Red Bull 10th. This was without rain throwing a curveball or a full-blown safety car bunching the pack - just two virtual safety cars, which maintain the intervals. For good measure, Verstappen also spun and was nursing a poorly clutch and upshifts.
