Günther Steiner believes that the time frame in which the driver will be able to feel the support of Ferrari fans and/or the industry is around six months.
However, if results do not come during this period, the current enthusiasm could easily turn into disappointment.
“I am sure he will have his time. There will be a grace period in which no one will be able to criticize him. But this will not last forever and will not extend to the end of the season. I think that, at most, he will have to show significant results within six months!
But he shouldn’t stress about it. As a professional athlete, he would never jump into something that he thinks is not suitable for him, that he can’t handle. If someone thinks that way, it’s better for him not to even start… And if by chance something bad happens, he will have time to deal with it when it happens.
Lewis is convinced that he will succeed, he does not waste useless energy to make this belief collapse with negative feelings. He will simply give his best, which is nothing other than bringing Scuderia Ferrari back to the top after 2007.” - reflected Günther Steiner.
It is certain that if he succeeds, he will surely go to heaven as an eight-time world champion. However, if Charles Leclerc beats him, the ground under his feet could get very hot… We are in for some exciting months!
