Ferrari to hold crunch talks after Charles Leclerc strategy blunder

Ferrari team principal Fred Vasseur has confirmed that the team will convene this week to discuss and find solutions to resolve strategy disagreements that have caused tension within the team. The announcement comes after Charles Leclerc’s frustration over Ferrari’s decision not to switch him onto soft tires during Q2, ultimately costing him a place in the final qualifying shootout.

Leclerc expressed his disappointment publicly, stating that this was not the first time such a problem had occurred. Although Ferrari later claimed that Leclerc changed his mind after reviewing the available data, the incident added to the already strained atmosphere within the team.

Recognizing the need to address the issue, team boss Vasseur has taken on the role of mediator. He revealed that the Ferrari squad will hold a meeting on Tuesday to thoroughly discuss the situation and devise measures to prevent such incidents from happening in the future.
