Come on we had much worse seasons under Enzo....

I think we will stop again

Detuned engine, plus we are forced to run a higher ride height. Our floor and sidepods aren’t designed to run this high. How on earth did they did they allow TD039 in the first place? No political power. Too naive. Imagine rejecting Jean Todt as an consultant at the beginning of the year.

That's true, but it was just such a strong start and they told us they sacrificed two season to develop for this one, and again a big NOTHING.

Exactly. I was so pumped for this season after I first saw the car and how different it looked from everyone else's. I thought this was going to be that season. Next year Mercedes will be back for sure, so this was probably our best chance of winning the championship.

**brucewayne** · 30th October 2022, 21:24

If you look how we developed this car, we lost the front of the car so Sainz could be more comfortable in the car. Only Ferrari could do things like this. You don’t see RB something like this for Perez. No teeth anymore, we need someone like Jean Todt again.

The utter failure of Ferrari this year would be funny if it wasn’t so damn tragic.

I don’t understand how anyone can maintain an argument for Binotto to keep his position after this. Mercedes was nowhere in the beginning and now Ferrari can’t even keep up with them. It’s so damn sad how the lack of leadership is destroying this team.

Aaand Charles' tyres are going, so he's going to be dropping like a stone. I wouldn't be surprised if Max laps him.

**Liscia** · 30th October 2022, 21:29

Slipped my mind as was doing stuff and just caught up now.
About what I expected and don't really care who wins just hope our guys hold position for points to lose
less ground to Mercs.

Just pit on new softs

**Schumiklub** · 30th October 2022, 21:31

Ugh, Charles had a big moment. Almost lost it.

**drax** · 30th October 2022, 21:31

If possible we should try the FL

**458 Italia** · 30th October 2022, 21:37

What a snoozefest this has been

**Schumiklub** · 30th October 2022, 21:38

We can't get past Stroll. Oh man.

**Gilles** · 30th October 2022, 21:38

Some genius said he wanted to win the eleven remaining races... Now, we know that was one more joke

Surprisingly we are taking penalties & we are not finishing races.
Still we are not able to solve reliability issues & tyre deg.

Should have been a no brainer for Charles.

**stefa** · 30th October 2022, 21:44

What an epic failure this season is for Ferrari!

**brucewayne** · 30th October 2022, 21:44

Embarrassing

Yup. All under the watchful eye of Mr “For the Good of the Sport”

How he isn’t fired already, I just do not understand.

**Schumiklub** · 30th October 2022, 21:45

Charles saying: "We really struggled. The overheating was quite a bit, but I don't think it would have mattered anyway."

So, even with a detuned engine we still had overheating.
