Formula 1: Rosberg Slams Ferrari’s 'clumsy' Canadian GP As Symbolic Of A Faltering Season

Canadian Grand Prix: Nico Rosberg didn’t mince words as he reflected on Ferrari’s turbulent Canadian Grand Prix, calling it a “clumsy weekend” that summed up the Scuderia’s underwhelming season so far. Speaking on The F1 Show, the 2016 World Champion dissected a series of missteps—from botched strategy calls to missed opportunities—that saw Ferrari drop to third in the Constructors’ standings behind a resurgent Mercedes.

“It was a bit of a clumsy weekend from Ferrari,” Rosberg said. “They had a strong pace at times—Charles [Leclerc] was quick in qualifying and kept up with the McLarens during the race—but the tyre strategy was wrong, and they didn’t capitalise on the opportunities they had.”

Rosberg pointed to Ferrari’s decision not to try a one-stop strategy with Leclerc, despite a clear window to experiment. Instead, they pitted him early, dropping him into traffic and undermining his race. The team also brought in Lewis Hamilton at a sub-optimal time, losing valuable track position.
