Italian journalist believes Ferrari is fourth-best team: “A disappointment only fools could deny”. Leo Turrini feels Ferrari is now only the fourth-best team after the F1 Chinese GP.

Lewis Hamilton, Ferrari SF-25, 2025 F1

The double disqualification was the final straw in an already frustrating situation. Ferrari fans woke up to a dawn that was more gray than red, with Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc—regardless of the FIA’s decision—crossing the finish line far from the podium. The Chinese GP confirmed Ferrari’s ongoing struggles, with some now placing it as only the fourth-best team on the grid.

Beyond McLaren, both Mercedes and Red Bull (at least Max Verstappen’s car) have proven to be a step ahead of the Maranello team. And if Christian Horner and Helmut Marko truly decide to bet on Yuki Tsunoda, the situation could become even worse than it already is.

Leo Turrini is blunt about Ferrari
“It’s best to hope Leclerc is right when he says that without the front wing damage, he had a car capable of winning. I doubt it, given Hamilton’s performance. Right now, Ferrari is the fourth-best team. And if Tsunoda replaces Lawson at Red Bull, they risk slipping down another rung,” Leo Turrini wrote in his blog.

“Regardless of McLaren’s merit, the SF-25 is a car born with many issues and few strengths. The Sprint race was a wonderful daydream, but the Grand Prix is another story. Can they fix it? They must. With twenty-two races to go, it’s too early to start thinking about 2026,” the veteran journalist added.

Leo Turrini also commented on the relationship between Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc. “Nothing new. Drivers, except in very rare cases, cannot be friends. They are simply colleagues, nothing more. What’s frustrating is that Leclerc and Hamilton are fighting for fifth place. That sums up a disappointment that only fools could deny.” – the Italian journalist concluded.

    Yes,Ferrari,what can i say. Ferrari’s mojo since the Schumacher era is, a distant memory,as Mark would say Ferrari is dead. Sad sad sad very sad for I love and still love Charles. Its not the drivers fault their car is at the moment an absolute spud, a disgrace , an humiliation to the Ferrari name. To drive for the famous red car is a privilege and honour,something you would love to put on your resume.Unfortunately,Ferrari management is a disgrace and a humiliation to Italy,its fans worldwide and to it’s drivers who constantly have to make excuses or basically lie to protect the incompetence of ferrari management.
    To save Ferrari, its name ,its heritage,its love 🥰 for its famous and glorious red car, people at the top must go and go now. With management staying,it makes Ferrrai F1 , a donkey’s ass, a ridiculed,
    humiliating ,disgrace ,a joke and an insult,not worthy to be called a true icon of f1 anymore. The true liability at ferrari is the people at the top and must go.that is my opinion.The truth hurts but this has to be stated for the sake of ferrari, for the sake of its legacy,for the sake of its fans worldwide.
    Another year of disappointments , of hopes dashed, of what if’s ,of crying over the death of my beloved car and the shameful propaganda based on lies. Written with extreme sadness.

      Mr Ferrari Loyalist, I could have said it better and agree with you fully 100% that the problem doesn’t lay with the drivers, but the top management.

      What I couldnt understand about Fred and Co is, why when it’s the last year of ground effect cars, did Ferrari decide to build a whole new car for scratch? They always do the opposite of every else on the grid. The SF24 wasnt to bad towards the end of last year., all the could have done was rewark certain things.

      It’s true what Egroj said : Do we need to focus on 2026 already??
