I've seen some journalists trying to push the narrative is 2nd fastest this year, which is a massive lie.
In fact, by removing McLaren completely from the championship, Ferrari would have only 4 races out of 16. Moreover, Leclerc has less top 5 results than both Max and Russell.
Ferrari is P2 in the WCC only because Hamilton is performing significantly better than Tsunoda and Antonelli.
What reputable journalist is saying that
They must be running some kind of agenda because I can't see how watching the races you could draw that conclusion.

Winning will be another story. Leclerc's pace in the first half of Hungary gives me a modicum of hope but everything would need to be perfect and remains to be seen if they can keep the plank from wearing over the race distance while still optimising the one-lap pace. Still, I think this will be the best change of a win for the rest of the year (slightly ahead of Singapore and then Vegas).
When they were asked about it a few weeks ago Leclerc sounded more confident about Singapore than the other two. More specifically he said Singapore>Baku>Vegas.
