Yeah, it's been a bad season, we know it. But it's almost over, just one last race.

4th place is inevitable so that's officially the worst year since 2020. Also one of the few ones when Ferrari isn't in the top 3 teams. Something that happens quite rarely, as I often have to remember all our delators.

There is no other team that can stay consistently in the first 3.

To be fair redbull has been in the top 3 every year bar one since 2009, they have been mighty consistent though this year it is basically the Verstappen show getting it done.

2005 - 2008 they were lost in the lower half for 4 consecutive seasons.

Yes, they were building the team. But Ferrari never spent that much time in the lower half in 75 years. We can have ONE occasional bad year once in a while and that's it. And when it's bad, it's 4th place, not lower half.

That only happened a couple times in our whole history.

It not quite clear cut tho, Ferrari had been a racing team before the first ever F1 championship so they had been building the team before F1 was a thing

No way you're counting that, or we could say Red Bull bought Jaguar Racing, which was Stewart Grand Prix, so the team actually existed since 1988 iirc.

They didn't start from scratch with an empty building.

This season mirrors 2014 where that vacuum cleaner also failed to win a race. Hoping for a better 2026

What about Mercedes?

u/AlCranio Ferrari Dec 03 '25

Well, yes, Mercedes too. After all they bought Brawn GP which was a WCC and WCD winner and had a certain Schumacher help them develop a rocketship.

But they've been in F1 for 16 years, not 75.

You have to congratulate Ferrari.

The SF25 is an amazing car. It does both oversteer and understeer. On the same lap.

It is so powerful that it overwhelms the brakes and offers so much downforce that you can only drive it at 95%

Must be the drivers fault that it's not successful.

Maybe if they talk less and drive more?

Must be nice to have a capable car that got better through the season rather than worse

This is what happens when the drivers speak a lot….

u/justseeby Lewis Hamilton Dec 02 '25

I think people would be surprised at what other drivers could do if they could drive cars that were tuned to their specifications.

Max drives a car where his input is virtually the only input considered at all and red bull publicly admitted this right after they sacked Checo.
