I do think the Italian media/potentially Ferrari themselves have been trying to pressure Carlos when it comes to contract talks too. First the Lando rumours (which were promptly shut down) and now Lewis rumours? Both drivers who have made it clear they are completely dedicated to their teams at that.
I would be very surprised if this is true. However, if it is, my guess would be something major has happened at Merc. Whether that be terrible wind tunnel/sim stats or internal issues I’m not sure but I don’t think he would just leave for Ferrari randomly.
