Ex-Haas team principal Guenther Steiner thinks it might be time for168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Charles Leclerc to seek a new challenge due to Ferrari’s failure to give him a title-contending F1 🉐car.

Ferrari have been the biggest disappointment of the 2025 🐎F1 season, scoring just one podium in the opening seven rounds.

A lot was expected of Ferrari after they narrowly missed out on the 2024 F1 constructors’ championship to McLaren.

Their strong end to last year, combined with the signing of 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton, me🍌ant expectations were hi🌸gh going into the season.

However, with Ferrari significantly off the pace set by McLaren, it looks 𓄧like Hamilton and Leclerc will have to wait until 2026 to fight for the title.

Leclerc has been at Ferrari since 2019 after re𝕴placing Kimi Raikkonen.

While he’s made the team his own by out-performing Sebas♏tian Vettel and Carlos Sainz, Ferrari have failed to give hi💫m the tools to fight for an F1 world championship for an entire season.

In 2022, Ferrari had a car comparable to Red Bull’s for th⛄e first half of♏ the season, but poor reliability and strategy cost Leclerc several race victories.

A technical directive for the Belgian Grand Prix curtailed Ferrari’s sea﷽son, and they’ve struggled to recover since.

2024 was arguably Leclerc’s best season to date, particu☂larly in terms of co꧟nsistency.

However,ౠ Ferrari rarely had the quickest car despite having won🐭 five races.

Steiner suggests Leclerc should leave

Steiner, who was Haas boss between 2016 and 20꧒23, thinks Leclerc could benefit from a team swap.

The Austrian cited Hamiltonꦕ’s decision to leave M♊ercedes to Ferrari.

But Steiner warned 🦩that making the incorrect team swi🌟tch, like Fernando Alonso did on several occasions, could backfire.

“I’ll go gas, he ne⛄eds a ne🐓w challenge,” Steiner said on The Red Flags podcast.

“I think he’s been there a long time, sometimes cha🌸nge is good like Lewi🔯s left Mercedes to go to Ferrari.

“I think Charles, it’s like something new because at some sta🌸ge ever⭕ything just becomes routine.

“He is༒ not in a position to win a championship, so if he maybe goes somewhere else, maybe he👍 gets lucky, you never know.

“Bꦫut he could be unlucky and go to the wrong 💎team like Fernando Alonso did.”
