There’s no respite for Ferrari: Charles Leclerc is reportedly battling a gastrointestinal issue during this final weekend of the season
It’s not just the ten-place grid penalty he’ll serve on Sunday. According to Jean Alesi on Canal+, the Monegasque driver is suffering from a gastrointestinal illness caused by food poisoning, likely contracted in the days leading up to the Abu Dhabi weekend.
When it rains, it pours for Ferrari. Between a phenomenal McLaren, Leclerc’s health struggles, and the looming grid penalty, the Constructors’ title fight now feels like an insurmountable challenge.
Updates on his condition are awaited: the situation seems to be under control, though the physical toll on Ferrari’s number 16 driver could impact his performance.
