Ferrari called Leclerc in on Lap 45, while168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: George Russell, who was running behind him, stayed out.
Up until his mistake, it was a masterstroke from Russell, as he rejoined in third as the rain fell, while Leclerc was unable to make up any po💟sitions.
Speaking after the race, Leclerc was🎀 quick to defend ▨Ferrari for the decisions they made during the race.
"We have done mistakes🌼 on strategy in the past. I don't think this was a mistake. In those conditions, you have more probability of having a safety car, with so many cars on s♐licks in the rain.
"So we were waiting for a safety car by someone making a mistake. That didn't happen and that's it. With the benefit of hindsight, stopping b🗹efore was the right decision.
"We had a very difficult car in traffic. Our pace is better than what we have shown today. In the e꧂nd, I couldn't do much more. The car was very difficult to drive in the wet."

L♛eclerc confirmed Ferrari will 🗹have a number of upgrades for next weekend’s Spanish Grand Prix.
“We will have a few new parts,” he a🅷dded. “I hope it goes in the right directio𒆙n.
“We don’t expect miracles. Hopefully it’s enough to have ♐a good qualifyinꦑg, at least.”
