Ferrari: another nightmare Sunday for Charles Leclerc, who pulls Perez
Ferrari driver Charles Leclerc commented bitterly on another weekend to forget: the Monegasque did not è manage to go beyond 11th position due to a contact at the start with Sergio Perez, which forced him to start from the bottom of the standings. A trouble in addition to the difficulties encountered in the sprint and official qualifying that have greatly penalized him in the last two days.
"Surely I tried to avoid at all costs any contact at the start, surely Oscar Piastri è blameless because é could not control what was happening on the inside of me, while on the part of Sergio Perez I think you could expect that in Turn 1 they could not enter together, forò in the end he made the turn and I did not", are the words to Sky of Leclerc
"It's been a race to forget, very conditioned by the first lap. I could not do anything and that affected our race a lot. We were not lucky with the safety car to get back into the battle and we had to make up 40 seconds that we had lost. I did a stint behind Norris without overtaking him in order not to get the blue flag".
