Charles Leclerc: Ferrari have no “magical solution” as “tricky” race predicted
Charles Leclerc is doubtful Ferrari will be able to keep their lead of the𒐪 Belgian Grand Prix.

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Charles Leclerc has downplayed Ferrari’s chances of hanging onto the lead of the Belgian Grand Prix after inheriting pole position from 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen.
Leclerc put together a great final lap in Q3 to pip 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Sergio Perez to second behind Verstappen.
However, Leclerc will start Sunday’s race at Spa-Francorchamps fr⛎om pole position due to an engine penalty for Verstappen.
Leclerc started last year’s race in the lead - also inheriting p෴ole from Verstappen - but lost out to Perez at the start.
Without the wet conditions, Leclerc feels fifth would 🧜have been a good result for Ferrari.
Speaking after qualifying at Spa, where 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:mahbx.com are present in the paddock, he said: “No, I'm very surprised. And actually, even when I finished the la⛄p, I didn't♎ feel like it was worth a second place. I mean, it was a good lap, a clean lap, and that's what you need in those conditions.
“And I believe that especially when you get to Q3 in the last lap, everybody knows that this is the lap, and that pushes people to maybe do more mistakes. On my side, it was a clean lap, but not an incredible lap. So yeah, I'm very happy to be P2 but I definitely di𝕴d not expect that.
“I think as a team today P5 will have been a bit of a good result and today we are P2 and tomorrow we will be starting on pole. So that's a good thing. But as I said we don't have any magical solution for the𒈔 race pace and it will be a bit of a tricky day tomorrow.”
Since winning the Monaco Grand Prix back in Ma🍎ꦏy, Ferrari have struggled for form.
Bouncing has been at the core of Ferrari’s problems, with an upgrade introduced in Barcelona makin𓂃g💃 the issue worse.
Leclerc revealed that had qualifying been dry, it would have likely impac🐠ted Ferrari again.
“Today, it was fine. But obviously, in wet conditions, it's always a little bit less of an issue,” he added. “Yesterday, we struggled a bit more with it. ♔But I don't expect this to be an issue tomorro♌w during the race.
“So this is a🌼 positive. So yeah. But if it was a dry quali, I would have expe🌠cted it to be a bit more of a struggle for us.”
