Leclerc fans, I’m genuinely begging you at this point: explain to me how Lewis Hamilton is the problem at Ferrari. And please be specific, because apparently Lewis is simultaneously the driver, strategist, race engineer, mechanic, technical director and team principal now. Was Lewis running the pit wall in Australia when Ferrari left BOTH cars out under the VSC while Mercedes stopped, allowing Mercedes to seize the strategic advantage? Was Lewis making Charles’s strategy in Miami when Ferrari pulled Charles in early specifically to cover Russell, dropped him into traffic and compromised a race in which he had been fighting at the front? Was Lewis responsible in Monaco when Ferrari double-stacked both cars under the Safety Car even though the team later acknowledged that the extra stop disadvantaged Charles? Was Lewis designing the Austrian strategy when Ferrari ended up committing both cars to a three-stop race that wasn’t the optimum strategy while their tyre degradation and overheating sent them backwards? Lewis went from fighting near the front to P5 and Charles finished P8. Was Lewis on the Silverstone pit wall when Ferrari knowingly pitted him from P2 under the late Safety Car, knowing Russell would stay out and take the position? Because that is exactly what happened. Charles won, which was great, but Ferrari still unnecessarily surrendered points with the other car. Was Lewis calling his own strategy in Hungary when Ferrari pitted him under the late VSC even though he said his tyres were fine, costing him track position to Verstappen and Antonelli and taking him out of podium contention? Then Zandvoort. Ferrari left Lewis sitting behind a slower Charles while Lewis was on the fresher tyre and trying an alternative strategy, wasting laps before finally separating them. They also botched Charles’s first-stop opportunity with a slow stop, then called him in close enough to Russell’s stop that Charles himself said it effectively committed him to finishing behind George. And Lewis was left extending another stint long enough that he literally asked whether Ferrari was using him as a “guinea pig.” BOTH drivers questioned the strategy. But yes, somehow Lewis is the problem. Monza? Both drivers openly said Ferrari failed to execute qualifying properly. Lewis’s Q2 plan was disrupted after his release was delayed, leaving him with only one proper push lap. Charles had a battery problem. Again: team execution. Baku qualifying? Lewis spent the session towing Charles and then reached Q3 without a tow himself. He finished nearly half a second behind Charles in that session. So somehow Ferrari giving one car the benefit of the tow and leaving the other without one is also Lewis’s fault? And then we arrive at YESTERDAY. Lewis qualified P2 in Sepang. Ferrari then put BOTH Lewis and Charles on soft slicks while significant parts of the track were still wet. Both cars immediately went backwards against drivers on intermediates. Lewis fell all the way to P18; Charles eventually found himself last after having to pit, with his separate contact and puncture making his situation even worse. And what happened after Ferrari put them in that hole? Lewis and Charles drove back through the field and finished P3 and P4. In other words, THE DRIVERS salvaged Ferrari’s day after Ferrari’s opening strategy call wrecked it. So please, I’m asking sincerely: where exactly does Lewis become “the problem” here? Maybe—just maybe—the seven-time world champion isn’t the common denominator here. Ferrari is. So please give me your arguments for why Lewis is supposedly the problem at Ferrari. Every single one. I genuinely want them, because at this point I would LOVE to go through them one by one.
