Mario Andretti told PlanetF1 Ferrari have made it all too easy for Max Verstappen this year. F1
Ferrari’s numerous strategic errors this season have resulted in Max Verstappen enjoying a huge lead in the Drivers’ Championship as the season enters its final act.
While Verstappen has been the star performer of the season, his trek to a second title has been made all the easier by constant errors made by Ferrari’s strategic team, according to Mario Andretti. “He still would be in control, in my opinion, but it was really handed to him. It’s always great to see Ferrari come back and be able to fight but they’ve made so many strategic mistakes on tyres and so forth – it’s unbelievable.”While Ferrari’s F1-75 has gone off the boil somewhat in recent races, the Scuderia’s machine proved a capable match, if not even quicker than, for Red Bull’s potent RB18.
“There were clear mistakes made on Ferrari’s strategies. They’ve had a couple of mechanical situations, which is unfortunate – that can happen to anyone.
