F1, Leclerc angry with Sainz: “We had said things to each other”

Team radio tough by Leclerc against Sainz

This time the rags flew between Leclerc and Sainz. During the Las Vegas GP, the Monegasque driver è complained about the behavior of his teammate, guilty, according to Leclerc, of not sticking to what was decided before the start. "It always does soì", one of the passages of the team radio, really harsh, addressed to the Spaniard.

"Angry? Yes, but I will not go into detail. Whyé am I? Becauseé there are some things we said to each other before the race but then è everything went differently. Anyway, third and fourth place is good for the race for the Constructors’ World Championship, less so for me who is dueling with Norris", Leclerc’s words to Sky Sport.

The Monegasque then preferred to think about the future: "I know I have to rely on myself and do well in qualifying, and then be competitive in the race. From now on I will only focus on myself". A statement that smacks so much of "closure" towards his teammate who, in two GPs, will no longer be part of Ferrari.

On his performance, Leclerc è was very lucid in analyzing the limitations he had on the track: "Sì, at the beginning I tried to aggressive and a little bit I paid for it. I lost a lot of time in the first few laps. I struggled so much with the averages", his closing remark.
