Leclerc: Our car was the fourth fastest

Charles Leclerc started from pole and considers fourth place at the finish, which became third after Russell’s disqualification, not a good result.

Charles Leclerc: “I can’t be satisfied. We weren’t fast enough in the race. Our car was the fourth fastest.

We knew McLaren and Red Bull would be ahead, but Mercedes was faster than expected. Under normal conditions, on a dry track, it would have been impossible to keep them behind. Fourth place is our maximum for today.

I don’t think this result is positive. If we were behind Red Bull, yes, but here we missed Mercedes, although we were confident that we could fight with them on an equal footing.

One of our problems is the return of the attack, which became noticeable again as fuel was used. The faster we drove, the more active the sway became, although it was not as annoying as before.”
