Leclerc: “The criticism always comes from the same people”

The focus on Charles As told in recent years, probably the most fierce critic of Charles Leclerc is Charles Leclerc himself. The Monegasque has often publicly taken responsibility for the mistakes he has made, showing himself to be very harsh towards himself. This is a character trait of the Monegasque well known both to the fans and to the Ferrari driver himself, who has spoken about it several times in interviews. Leclerc’s last period on the track has been negative and in these two weeks in particular many commentators have changed their focus, turning their focus of criticism from Lewis Hamilton to Charles Leclerc. Leclerc’s response to the critics Some have been particularly harsh, such as Jacques Villeneuve who asserted in recent days that Leclerc has not been able to build Ferrari around himself in recent years, unlike Hamilton.
The driver from Monte Carlo, when asked about this “hero to zero and vice versa” attitude typical of Formula 1, gave a very balanced and agreeable answer. “There are always rumors and gossip going around, but the criticism always comes from the same people and is part of this job,” he underlined with a certain calm in the Thursday interview with the Belgians from RTBF, adding: “I am extremely lucky to be a Ferrari driver and a Formula 1 driver and this also brings more criticism. I think it is normal for there to be some when things are not going well. I hope to return to performances more similar to those at the beginning of the season and I am working hard so that everything can go as I would like,” concluded Leclerc.
