A few days ago it was announced that Charles Leclerc will have a new racing engineer: Javi Marcos was replaced by Brian Bozzi. In Imola, the Monegasque commented on the situation…
Charles Leclerc: “The competition is very intense this year, where all factors matter. The decision was made between the team and Xavi. I was informed about this immediately after Miami.
But I’ve known Bozzi for a long time, from day one in the team, so this won’t be a revolution. Just a personnel change. So far everything is going smoothly, I am convinced that it will remain that way. We are 100% ready for this weekend.
Movie day? This was mainly for filming. We don’t have any real data yet. Externally, the new items have changed the car, but you have to be careful with external changes so as not to have false expectations.
We believe that we are on the right track, but we still need to be sure. I don’t think we can judge the effectiveness of new products in one weekend. Yes, after a few rounds we will understand if they work as we expected. But we have to wait for other songs, with different characteristics. Only this will tell us in what form we will run the remaining races of the season.
Updates are released on schedule. This had been planned and thought out a long time ago – and was not a response to any possible weaknesses of the car in the first races. The main goal is to make the car better in everything. We have seen progress on the simulator, let’s see how everything will go on the real track. I hope it will be so.”
