Charles Leclerc has delivered a clear request that himself and
Lewis Hamilton must join forces to help put an end to Ferrari's
current nightmare. It has been a disastrous start to the season
for the Maranello-based outfit, who already find themselves fourth
in the F1 constructors' title and 152 points behind McLaren With
the exception of Hamilton's sprint victory in China, Ferrari has
been unable to compete with McLaren, who finished 57 seconds ahead
in the Miami Grand Prix. Leclerc and Hamilton had to settle for
seventh and eighth in the most recent round, behind Williams' Alex
Albon. It has encountered multiple issues with its SF-25, making
Leclerc recognise that both Ferrari drivers must pull together. "We
need to, for sure, I think we will be quite aligned on the fact
that it wasn't the Sunday we wanted," Leclerc told select media,
including RacingNews365 . "And even though the pace is not there,
I don't think there was any miracles. If everything will have gone
perfectly, maybe we finish in front of Kimi [Antonelli], but that's
it. "There wasn't much more in the car. So I think we need to
separate the two things. Yes, we need to fix those issues that
probably cost us one position, but the other seven or six positions
are down to the car, and this we need to make it better." There is
some small hope in the near future for the Scuderia, who have an
upgrades package in the pipeline. When asked if Ferrari has an
upgrade on the horizon, Leclerc responded: "I don't know when. I
don't think it's official. I think I've already said too much.
"So, yeah, there will be things coming at one point, and I hope
that this will help us to do a step forward."
