Fatal strategy blunders are "part of Ferrari's history", according to a motorsport reporter who doubts the Italian team's chances of success this season.
Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz started the season strongly, finishing first and second in Bahrain while driving what clearly looked to be the fastest car on the grid. Fast-forward by two months, though, and the picture is now far less pretty for Mattia Binotto and his colleagues.
Lately, Max Verstappen has been getting the better of Leclerc while Sainz suffered costly back-to-back DNFs which have hampered his chances. As a result, Red Bull have taken a 36-point lead in the constructors' standings while Verstappen is currently in pole position to successfully defend his drivers' title.
