According to Corriere dello Sport, several engineers at Maranello were displeased with the Monegasque driver\u2019s comments following the Singapore Grand Prix, viewing them as damaging to team morale.<\/p>\n<p>After another disappointing weekend, Leclerc voiced his frustration, saying: \u201cMercedes has made great strides forward, just like Red Bull had a few races ago, but we haven\u2019t. In these conditions, it\u2019s difficult to be optimistic and think that the situation can change in the final races.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>His assessment reportedly sparked discontent among the engineering staff, who felt the remarks unfairly targeted their work.<\/p>\n<p>Ferrari remain the only team in the top four of the Constructors\u2019 Championship without a victory in 2025. Leclerc has been responsible for all five of the team\u2019s podium finishes, while Lewis Hamilton is still searching for his first top-three result with the Scuderia.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">&#8220;We are struggling massively&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Charles Leclerc was left frustrated by Ferrari&#8217;s lack of pace in Singapore \ud83d\udcdd\ud83d\udc47<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/F1?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">#F1<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/SingaporeGP?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">#SingaporeGP<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/lYrIUXeWTl\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/t.co\/lYrIUXeWTl<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Formula 1 (@F1) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/F1\/status\/1975179954439823691?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">October 6, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>The atmosphere within the team is said to be tense, with reports of a heated exchange between team principal Frederic Vasseur and a senior engineer following the Singapore race, where Leclerc endured a tough evening, finishing sixth after being forced to manage brake temperatures throughout the race.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tension is reportedly building inside Ferrari F1 team after Charles Leclerc\u2019s public criticism of the team\u2019s 2025 car, the SF-25.
