The phrase on social media
Calum Nicholas spends a lot of time on social networks, where he often interacts with users who contact him and to whom, two days ago, he dedicated a sentence that did not go unnoticed: “Pre-season never officially started until random articles claim Ferrari found 1 million horsepower over the winter“.
The ironic statement by the Red Bull mechanic is a direct dig at specialized journalists, who often venture into overly rosy predictions about the recoveries of the various teams.
Nicholas in fact specified: “I don't think it's Ferrari that's letting these wild rumors get around. We're talking about 'journalists' who make up nonsense“.
