Charles Leclerc told “he needs a new challenge” to win first F1 title
Is it time for Charles Leclerc to leave Ferrari?

Ex-Haas team principal Guenther Steiner thinks it might be time for168澳洲5最新开奖结果: Charles Leclerc to seek a new ch👍allenge due to 𝐆Ferrari’s failure to give him a title-contending F1 car.
Ferrari have been the biggest disappointme🎃nt of the 2⛦025 F1 season, scoring just one podium in the opening seven rounds.
A lot was expected of Ferrari after they narrowly missed out on the 2024 F1 constructors’ championship to McLaren.
Their strong end to last year, combined with the signing of 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lewis Hamilton, meant expectations were high g𒐪oing into the season.
𒀰However, with Ferrari significantly off the pace set by McLaren, it looks like Ham💎ilton and Leclerc will have to wait until 2026 to fight for the title.
Leclerc has been a♋t Ferrar𝕴i since 2019 after replacing Kimi Raikkonen.
While he’s made the ꦡteam his own by out-performing Sebಞastian Vettel and Carlos Sainz, Ferrari have failed to give him the tools to fight for an F1 world championship for an entire season.
In 2022, Ferrari had a car comparable to Red Bull’s for t🌼he first half of the season, but poor reliability and strategy cost Leclerc several race victories.
A technical dire꧂ctive for the Belgian Grand Prix curtailed Ferrari’s season, and they’ve struggled to recover since.
2024 was 🔯arguably Leclerc’s be✨st season to date, particularly in terms of consistency.
Howeve💟r, Ferrari 💎rarely had the quickest car despite having won five races.
Steiner suggests Leclerc should leave
Steiner, who w🅰as Haas boss between 2016 and 2023, thinks Leclerc could benefit from a team 🎉swap.
The Austrian citওed Hamilton’s deci☂sion to leave Mercedes to Ferrari.
Bu🧸t Steiner warned that making the incorrect team switch, like Fernando Alonso did on several occasions, could backfire.
“I’ll go gas,🥀 he needs a new challenge,” Steiner said on The Red Flags podcas𒁏t.
“I think he’s been there a long time, sometimes change is good like Lewis left Mercedes to go t♏o Ferrari.
“I think Charles, it’s like something new꧑ because at so🗹me stage everything just becomes routine.
“H🔯e is not in a position to win a championship, so if he maybe goes somewhere else, maybe he gets lucky, you never know.
“But he could be un🍸lucky a🤡nd go to the wrong team like Fernando Alonso did.”
