Charles Leclerc (P14): 6/10
You could hear jaws hitting the floor in the paddock when Ferrari ended up 14th and 15th in the timings at the end of first practice. What were they up to? Were they sandbagging? It was with a sense of a slowly unfolding nightmare over the ensuing sessions that fans realised that Ferrari weren't playing games, they were genuinely in trouble - and this time, Charles Leclerc was as equally afflicted as his team mate Sebastian Vettel. Nothing Leclerc or the team tried to address the problem made any difference. Just scraping past the end of Q1, both cars were firmly eliminated in the second round. Leclerc started the race from 13th and made little progress, finishing one place in arrears after being forced to make two pit stops compounded by delays as the mechanics rushed to patch up a pneumatic problem. Leclerc did at least gain a place from Romain Grosjean on the final lap but otherwise Ferrari struggled to match even their Haas and Alfa Romeo engine stablemates all weekend.
Sebastian Vettel (P13): 6/10
This weekend Sebastian Vettel was stuck in the same hole as Ferrari and his team mate Charles Leclerc. If he looked a little more composed about the unfolding disaster for the team at Spa, it's because he's already suffered through the opening six rounds of 2020 and had a taste of the serious problems facing the squad. At least this weekend he wasn't alone, and he was within touching distance of Leclerc throughout the weekend indicating that the problems are team-wide and not down to him - although finishing FP3 slowest of anyone was still a kick in the teeth to the four-time world champion. He finished ahead of Leclerc in the race on a one-stop strategy but was frustrated to lack the pace to battle even the likes of Haas and Alfa Romeo: losing out to his former team mate Kimi Raikkonen pretty much summed up the whole debacle.
