Terruzzi reveals that Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton are increasingly “tired” of the recurring problems emerging at Maranello: “The worst Ferrari according to…”, he wrote, outlining a future that seems to be raising more and more concern inside the team. The Scuderia appears trapped in a spiral of promises that are not being fulfilled, where the gap between official statements and on-track reality becomes more visible with every race.
Charles Leclerc, a young talent who joined Ferrari with the ambition of bringing the Prancing Horse back to the top of the world, and Lewis Hamilton, a seven-time world champion used to winning, now find themselves united by the same frustration: Ferrari has built what the drivers consider the weakest car of recent years, and both have grown tired of the persistent issues coming from Maranello.
It is no surprise that the rumours surrounding a potential departure of Charles Leclerc are gaining momentum. The Monegasque driver is evaluating all possible paths for 2027, with Aston Martin reportedly ready to offer him a contract. Much will also depend on what Max Verstappen decides to do, especially with Christian Horner’s expected arrival at the British team. There are many scenarios on the table, and it is believed that Charles will wait to see how competitive Ferrari’s next car will be before choosing his future. Meanwhile, new behind-the-scenes details reveal growing discontent from both Ferrari drivers.
Terruzzi: “The worst Ferrari according to Charles and Lewis”
“The worst Ferrari according to Charles, who does not want to take the blame — and perhaps has none. The worst season according to Lewis, who avoids any responsibility even if he has more than one. Disarmament and disillusion, nothing like standing to attention.” These are the words used by Giorgio Terruzzi in Corriere della Sera, expressed with a sharp and unfiltered tone. His comments highlight a crisis that goes far beyond sporting results. Ferrari, currently sitting fourth in the Constructors’ Championship, finds itself in a position that does not reflect its legendary history and raises serious doubts about its ability to bounce back.
Leclerc, no longer the young rookie but still hungry for success, feels let down by a car that does not allow him to showcase his abilities. Hamilton, a veteran and seven-time champion, is living through a season that feels completely alien to his standards and far from representing his true level.
Both drivers converge on one clear message: Ferrari must change direction. The blind faith that accompanied the project is beginning to crack, and what was dubbed the “marriage of the century” now risks turning into a fragile relationship marked by mutual impatience.
“The SF25 has exhausted Leclerc and Hamilton, a car full of flaws. Despite the president’s warning, the two champions can no longer hide their frustration, and the dissatisfaction is amplified by the clock. The formal phrases pronounced ahead of Las Vegas, coordinated for appearances and barely digested, no longer hold. Vasseur’s descriptions of a fantastic scenario are contradicted by the results and the drivers’ feelings.”
“Ferrari is fourth in the Constructors’ Championship, showing signs of a collapse that belittles the past, disappoints the present, and worries for the future. It’s hard to still consider Charles Leclerc’s faith blind, and it seems almost impossible to revive the ‘marriage of the century’ with Hamilton, both experiencing mutual frustration.” Giorgio Terruzzi’s words suggest that without a radical internal shift, Ferrari risks losing not only performance but also the spirit that once made it unique.
The current season is effectively over, but all eyes turn to 2026 — a decisive moment when the Scuderia will need to choose whether to continue drifting through unfulfilled promises or finally embrace a true path of rebirth.
