The Italian press, which usually pointed out Ferrari’s mistakes sharply, did not criticize Charles Leclerc for a mistake in Paul Ricard, which led to an outright…
Gazzetta dello Sport: “Ferrari was fast in the French stage, Leclerc dominated and Red Bull had problems. But Charles ended the race in a tire obstacle and Verstappen scored 25 points. See la vie.
Leclerc is a talented racer, he works hard, does everything in his power. Unfortunately, this time he made a mistake, but he recognized it immediately and deserved genuine sympathy.
Verstappen won the race even though his car was not the fastest in France. It is difficult to estimate what the result could have been if it had not been Leclerc’s fault.
To become a champion you have to win races and not make mistakes. Verstappen learned from past mistakes and over time became a flawless driver. Now Leclerc is on that path.”
Corriere dello Sport: “Every Ferrari fan screamed along with Charles when he crashed into the guardrail. No one is perfect, but the title always goes to the one who made the fewest mistakes. Verstappen got a huge lead and confidently goes to the second title.
Leclerc will draw conclusions and not repeat mistakes. In the past he had always learned from his mistakes, but now defeat was bitter. Vettel had a similar accident at Hockenheim four years ago while driving a Ferrari.”
