*Everyone in Formula 1 knew one thing about me.
I was not easy to work with.
When I became Ferrari's new Team Principal, the entire paddock had an opinion.
Some people doubted me.
Others thought I was too young.
But after my first season, nobody questioned my results.
I was strict.
Extremely strict.
I expected perfection from everyone.
The engineers.
The strategists.
The mechanics.
And especially the drivers.
Ferrari wasn't just a team to me.
It was a legacy.
A responsibility.
A name that carried decades of history.
And I refused to accept anything less than excellence.
The drivers quickly learned that I wasn't someone they could charm.
Not even Charles Leclerc.
Charles was one of Ferrari's biggest stars.
Talented.
Passionate.
One of the fastest drivers on the grid.
But he also had a reputation for being emotional and taking risks.
Something I had very little patience for.
After one qualifying session, I called him into my office.
He walked in confidently.
"You wanted to see me?"
I didn't look up from the data on my screen.
"Yes."
He sat down.
"You took unnecessary risks in the final sector."
Charles frowned.
"We were fighting for pole position."
"And you almost lost the car."
"But I didn't."
I finally looked at him.
"That is not the standard Ferrari operates by."
The room went quiet.
Most people softened when talking to Charles.
I didn't.
"You are an incredible driver, Charles."
"But talent doesn't mean anything without discipline."
He leaned back, clearly annoyed.
"So now you're telling me how to drive?"
"I'm telling you how to win."
For a moment, neither of us spoke.
Everyone in the team knew we had completely different personalities.
Charles was instinct.
I was strategy.
He followed his emotions.
I followed the numbers.
And somehow...
That was exactly why we constantly challenged each other.
The entire paddock knew when Charles and I were in the same room.
There would be tension.
Arguments.
Different opinions.
But there was also something else.
Respect.
Because Charles knew one thing:
I was strict because I believed Ferrari could be better.
And I knew one thing about him:
Behind all the frustration and emotion...
Was a driver who wanted the same thing I did.
Victory.*
