    What a difference a summer break makes. Ferrari has emerged from the summer break a completely new team. Snatching four consecutive poles and three back to back wins. And leaving Mercedes and Redbull reeling with disbelief of the overall pace of the prancing horse over a full lap.

    The shoe is on the other foot now.

    According to multiple reports, Leclerc has split with model girlfriend Giada Gianni so he can focus on his F1 pursuits.

    I am just too flabergasted at how Ferrari has squandered opportunities to win races this season. The potential of their package is immense but not matched by their operatiional efficiency unfortunately. If they start the 2020 season with the form they have found in the 2nd half of this season, they shall obviouisly be a force to be rekoned with next season. Even so, the smart bet is on Mercedes winning their eight title in the face of a rapid Ferrari. Mainly because Ferrari has two out of three of the ingredients to be ready to win any of the championship titles on offer, they have the drivers and the car to win the title but lack the human resources to produce the high level of operational efficiency to match Mercedes throughout a full season.

    That said, the spike of their progress through the summer break suggests that there is more to come from Ferrari. They remain the dominant car in the latter half of this season, and show signs of frailty typical of a young team which they sort of are. But demonstrates the ingenuity that they need to reel in Mercedes and establish themselves as the new dominant team of the coming era. But the bar is so high and Mercedes operate comfortably at these high altitudes of perfection.
