He may be leaving Merc with his whole team of race engineers and Bono. We dont know but I dont think he is going to solely rely on these clowns at Ferrari. If he does then he joins the team just to kill his career.
I am convinced being a Ferrari strategist is probably a side job and these people are actually doing something else during the sessions and when the driver asks them something they have to then watch replays and catch up before they can answer.
Ahh makes sense now no wonder they kept saying we are checking cuz they weren't sure if he was asking a question or making a statement! Ha jeez la weez
That’s just because driving an F1 car with a mic in your mouth it’s hard to have right tone of voice. Especially if talking in a physically demanding part of the track. So if a driver realizes the phrasing was ambiguous or there was noise, they will add “question”, to make sure it’s clear
Funny I see this comment and in Australia this year when Charles asked about the last lap and Russell’s status Xavi was like “We have the fastest lap” and “we are checking”
Hamilton - Fred, my tyres are gone Fred - Yes lewis, the crew are sitting on them to warm up your tyres for you to go hammertime. Hamilton - But i neee them now. Fred - Yes Lewis you will get them after 4sec. we to not maintain our slow stop spree.
Xavi is the worst Until Charles decides to raise his voice and continues to speak softly, there is no getting away from it; he wants to be a team man and be proactive and that is admirable but in certain situations you have to do something else. Especially with management like that at Ferrari.
why is he the worst tho ? Every race engineer needs to check the things driver asking for with the team and then answer, saying "we are checking" or "one moment" is the same
@@onetwo-gt2trthe difference is that the other engineers actually check and answer instead of just saying that "we are checking" and not give an actual answer
Seriously, everybody now thinks Xavi is just a retard who cant do this job properly. Fred Vasseur is the team principal and HE should do something about that. This is not acceptable.
Mate, it is frustrating and annoying for me to hear "copy understood" and "we are checking", I can only imagine how frustrating it must be for Carlos and Charles to not get any information.
Are you stupid ? They check and then they tell them. If the driver asks for a penalty request, or if there is a problem in the engine, ferrari got a whole team looking at engine sensors and analyzing if there is something wrong, they need to check it and then tell xavi and then xavi can tell Leclerc. Same with penalties, they need to analyze the images, tell fia etc and then tell the driver. Dont be this dumb please
Red Bull and Mercedes have "war rooms" where 100s of engineers are look at all the date, lap times, radio of other teams, weather forecast. They think ahead. They know every lap on every corner of the track - if the jump to pit with a FCY or Safety Car. They know each performance of each car on every tire. They can predict the outcome of the race, after a few laps if they stay green and weather stays the same. Ferrari? Well... I don´t know which technology they use, but it is rather 2 or 3 students sitting on the top of the garage, eating pizza and drinking lambrusco and they have here and there a look on the worldfeed.
They are still doing this and it is so frustrating. Its like the race engineer knows nothing and can't decide anything. 'Should we box?'-'Let me check.' 'Do I have damage?' - 'Let me check.' 'What is our strategy?' - 'Let me check.' Like seriously how did he got that job?
It's impressive the contrast between the arrogance of the owners of Ferrari, compared to how absolutely incompetent they allow their race engineers to be.
"We are checking" means they're checking your net worth to make sure you're important enough to drive their priceless unreliable Italian-crafted masterpiece.
I really hope this is just edited version, if I was in his shoe I'd expect my engineer to ask more in detail instead of just a "we are checking" Like we know you are checking, I know they are trying to give less into to others since radio is open channel. But when it comes to simple things like lap time, pace comparison , if you are not looking at that info and not able to give it right away, are they sleeping?
"So, what makes you think, you are the man for a position as a professional red suit-wearing seat warmer at the pitstop, in our *prestiges* racing car brand?" "Copy that, I am checking for reasons." "You're hired. Get the red nose and the clown costume."
Leclerc just needs to do his own strategy. Drive hard then tell the team tires are done pitting next lap for whichever tire he wants. Ie. pitting next lap for hards, be ready.
Every time I get asked a question at work now I’ll just bust out the old “I’ll come back to you, I’m checking now.”
I've been doing that all my career.
Same

My favorite Ferrari line is when

I am convinced being a Ferrari strategist is probably a side job and these people are actually doing something else during the sessions and when the driver asks them something they have to then watch replays and catch up before they can answer.
no team have the race engineer that talks to the drivers doing the strategy. And yes, they need to analyze the replays before giving an answer
They're Italian, they probably having pasta with wine while Charles and Carlos come into the pits.
No, they are just Italian. They do not believe in working more than 4 hours a week, that's why everything in Italy is so badly run
@@PG-20 Pasta with wine?

He needs to say "Question" after he asked a question so his engineer knows he asked a question.

“We are going to plan B”

It feels like before they chose bad decisions they chose no decisions :D

He is leaving Ferrari, in a strange way i will miss Xavi's bizarre radio messages.
"we are checking..."
Charles won’t!
@@anne-marie207 Yes that's true. Charles will be with us and soon will be champion. Forza Ferrari!
Xavi finally been replaced and I had to rewatch this
In memoriam
Miami might have been the last straw for Leclerc, especially after what happened in the practice session.
Yeah same 🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭
Sainz and Leclerc are in the queue for the call center service. Just put some horrible music in the silence and you have a banger video
"What's 2+2?"
"We are checking ..."
Leclerc: why the fuck am I so unlucky?
Ferrari: we are checking
Doesn’t matter what Charles says Xavi will always reply with “copy we are checking slow button on”
ironically, they never came back to the drivers
"Welcome to the Ferrari helpdesk. Your business is very important to us. Please hold the line while we are checking..."
“Are you guys alive? Is there a team on the pit wall still?”
“We are checking, we’ll come back to you on that”
Can't imagine how Lewis will tolerate this
We are checking, we will come back to you...
i dont know, im checking it right now.
Hamilton is mediocre. driver. So, that's not a problem.
It's so comic, it seems like these are pre-registered speeches which they play whenever drivers are asking something😂
It sounded like outsourced customer support reps talking

The thing is i think ferrari were the first ones to have this but im not sure .... so
Ill get back to u and i will check
legend says they are still checking to this day
The pinnacle of being ill prepared
Everyone: What? Xavi is replaced?
Ferrari: Copy we are checking. We will come back to you.

That clip at 0:43 was literally 15 seconds after the Grosjean crash. At that time noboby knew what was going on with Romain...

Ferrari race engineers also operate an icecream van during the race.
Show some consideration. They need to get customer orders out.
It's impressive the contrast between the arrogance of the owners of Ferrari, compared to how absolutely incompetent they allow their race engineers to be.
If it remains bad enough for long enough, a new Italian automaker might be founded.
I think they don't need to improve the car. Rather, they need to change the engineer and the head strategist.

Already in Bahrain/Race 1 of 2024 here there was a "We are checking" radio response during the race. Its like they're in on it by now.
This is how I respond to tickets with an SLA of 1 month
This video was so damn... I'll come back to you :D
"I'll broke my rear wing", "Copy we will check that"
What's to check there?
Ferrari are clowns but tbh this one is quite ok, they need to inspect it to see if it can run or not
