Mika Hakkinen describes the current situation at Ferrari as "Bizarre"

Charles Leclerc joined Ferrari for the 2019 season, as the team looked to find someone who could push Sebastian Vettel further. This proved to be the case with the 22-year-old finishing ahead of the German in the final standings.

"It has been a very strange season for Ferrari. It was really bizarre how suddenly they could be so fast," Mika Hakinnen told Unibet.

 "Progress in Formula 1 is usually gradual and then, of course, all the alarm bells go off when they make such a big leap.

 "It is impressive to see what Leclerc has done this year. Sebastian has so much experience in Formula 1 and has been with Ferrari for a long time.

 "To beat him in your first year, you have to come from a very good family. Now he has to take that next step to get everything done because you won't get much time at Ferrari."

 Vettel secured just one victory in 2019 as he finished the season on 240 points, 16 behind his teammate Leclerc.
