On Friday, Charles Leclerc completed the program in full, and his partner Carlos Sainz crashed again with the car…
Charles Leclerc (2nd): “All in all a good day. We gradually got into speed, getting used to the unfamiliar track. The configuration is difficult, but it’s fun to fly in Miami, I especially liked the 11 to 16 corner segment in the second sector.
With my car we went through the program completely, carried out all the planned checks. The results were solid – looks like we’re in for an interesting weekend.
Asphalt can also contribute – grip is good on the track, but off it there is almost none, so it will be difficult to overtake. In addition, the surface is very aggressive, the tires wear out quickly – it is important to control their condition during the race.
Carlos Sainz (11th): “Not the best way to start the weekend. I paid dearly for the U-turn that resulted in an accident that ended the program early Friday.
But the car was competitive, I’m sure we can get a good result. It makes no sense to dwell on what happened on the first day, let’s focus on qualifying and the race.
My biggest regret is adding work to the mechanics. I will talk to them and other team members and tomorrow we have a new day.”
