What rubs me the wrong way is that the drivers knew and supported the cancellation of developments for this year in order to focus on next year. Yet every weekend they are whining about a car for which they know the reasons already. Maybe this is why Elkann wanted the drivers to talk less. Whats the point of fresh whining every weekend as if it's a surprise that they are not competitive? Why are the drivers expecting to win races with a car that hasn't been developed since the spring?
Frederic Vasseur also clarified that the decision was taken in full agreement with Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc. “This choice was shared by everyone in the team. We agreed to concentrate the wind tunnel resources we had on 2026. And the drivers took part in this decision — they are fully committed to the project. In situations like this you have to act as a team, and that’s exactly what we did at that point in the season.”
