168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Charles Leclerc says he does not have the “magic answer” to explain his impressive F1 pole position record at the Azerbaijan Gran🐟d Prix.
The Ferrari driver took a comfortable pole in Baku for the fourth year in a row, qualifying 0.321 seconds qui🧸cker than McLaren’s Oscar Piastri, who denied Carlos Sainz a spot on the ꦦfront row alongside his teammate.
Asked by if his latest pole in Baku was his best ye🍌t, 🌠Leclerc replied: “No it’s not the best.
“I think theꩲ 2021 one was probably the best as we were in a very, very difficult year. I think we were fighting for P9 and P10 in that 🎀championship and to be on pole here was very special.
“However, it was a really good lap. Again, for some reason there is not much scatter between my laps on this track. It looks like I’m very consistent but I don’t rℱeally have the magic answer. I just like the rhythm of this track.
“Every lap I was doing was quite competitive from Q1 and the balance was feeling really good. Th💯e lap was really good, but it’s also very difficult to compare it to different years.”
It marks Leclerc’s third pole of the season and the 26th of𝓡 his 🃏career.
Despite claiming pole on four previous occasions in Baku, the Monegasque is yet to co🌺nvert it into the win around the street circuit.

“It would be nice [to finally win],” Leclerc acknowledged. “In 2021 and 2023 it was quite unexpected the pole posi๊tionsꦜ. We didn’t have the pace in the car to win.
“In 2022 we had a good car and then the engine blew up, so hopefully the pace is there and we don’t have anything wh𝔍ich stops us from winning it.
“B🌺ut before thin꧅king about the final result there are still a lot of laps around this track and it’s a very difficult track. So we will see tomorrow.
“In the meantime I will just make sure that I am doing the best preparat꧂ion possible.”
Leclerc insiꦬsted tha🐠t he is “not worried” about the race pace of his Ferrari, despite failing to complete a long run on Friday after a crash in first practice.
“I didn’t do a lap with high fuel but it’s beဣen a pretty strong point of the car this year, so I’m not worried going into tomorrow’s race,” he said.
“But obviously we need to get things right so I will need to do a bit of homework tonight in order to get ready for tomorrow𒁏. But I am not too worried. We will do the best job with o🍌ur package and then we will see if it’s good enough to win the race or not.”
