Is there any "number 1" driver at any other team that's as disrespected as charles is by his own team??
I know the answer is no, because they won't even admit he's the number one despite him being miles clear of his teammate.
Like imagine any of the other teams posting about a race that their driver called the worst race ever for them and then changing the story to make it seem like it was the drivers fault for not being smart like their teammate and think of "the risky gamble" themselves and not the teams fault for fucking up.
Imagine any other team refusing to acknowledge any of their drivers great driving or overtaking at a race that the win was LITERALLY TAKEN AWAY FROM HIM and to this day have not mentioned it. If one of the merc drivers or mclaren or any other team managed that copse overtake that charles did, you'd best believe they'd have posted it multiple times. But nope, according to scuderia Ferrari, Charles leclerc did not partake in Silverstone 2022.
Imagine any other driver achieving one of the most prestigious accolades in f1, a grand slam, the first for your team in 12 years. The driver thats from your academy, one of your own, and you can't even acknowledge that with a measly post. Any other team would've rolled out the red carpet to post about an achievement like that.
It pisses me off so much that charles fans are called sensitive when we count social media posts, but how can we not be when we see the way he's constantly left out to dry on track, and disregarded off track (except of course when it comes to ice bath content) Like they could post carlos' Monaco p2 despite it being such a controversial outcome for the team, but they couldn't make a post about charles australia win. I won't even get into all the interviews by binnoto and Mekies last year when they couldn't even defend their driver after they fucked up. Poor boy really is taken for granted
Ferrari social media admin when it's time to post about Charles's achievements: I sleep
Ferrari social media admin when it's time to post Charles ice bath content: Real shit
Not sure what the social media "strategy" is and at this point I'm too afraid to ask πŸ’€ By wanting to be as vague and uncontroversial and fair as possible, they actually create more discord between fan groups... If they decided that posting throwbacks to achievements from previous seasons is going to be a thing they do, they should execute it better. Because so far what they post vs what they don't has been incredibly arbitrary (not to mention polarizing). A grand slam weekend probably carries more significance and "value" than a P2 finish, but you get a post about the latter and not a word about the former. That was certainly a choice πŸ€”And then of course the quote Tweets which are just............. Lord give me strength πŸ˜­πŸ™„
Idk, honestly, I'm so tired of their "How do you do, fellow kids?" memetastic #relatable Swiftie approach to social media that I mostly just elect to ignore them and not engage with most of the posts in that vein. πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ It's giving Ryanair Twt account energy where instead of addressing very real complaints they choose to ratio their own passengers in the most obnoxious way possible...
