Leclerc calls on Ferrari to maintain clear direction with 'aggressive' updates
Charles Leclerc wants Ferrari to continue being aggressive with its development programme during the second half of the Formula 1 season. Throughout the 2026 Formula 1 season, Ferrari has continuously introduced updates to the SF-26.
Charles Leclerc has urged Ferrari to maintain a relentless development strategy for the remainder of the Formula 1 season. Since the start of the 2026 F1 season, the Scuderia has rolled out continual updates to the SF-26. Ferrari has secured two victories so far, at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya and Silverstone, while Lewis Hamilton currently trails in the drivers' standings by 50 points.
After the Hungarian Grand Prix, where Leclerc finished fourth following Hamilton's penalty, he emphasized the need for Ferrari to continue its aggressive approach. Speaking to GPblog, he commented: "That's the [current] championship again. Upgrades are so much more significant than in the past because it makes us do such a big step forward."
He also expressed his confusion over Ferrari's inconsistent performances in the last three races, stating that the team needs to find consistency to improve.
