Charles Leclerc lost his cool during the Hungarian Grand Prix. After the race, he took back his anger.
Charles Leclerc has taken back the anger he aimed towards his Ferrari team during the Hungarian Grand Prix. The Monegasque driver admitted, “I was wrong” to ViaPlay following the chequered flag at the Hungaroring, after it came to light that it was damage to his SF-25 that ruined his race. Having started from pole, the eight-time grand prix winner had a strong start and was controlling the race through the first pit stop phase. It went downhill from there, and he has now converted only one of his last 16 poles into victory. The 27-year-old explained it was an issue with his chassis, and not a problem related to his Ferrari power unit, as he suspected through the 70-lap race. He appeared unhappy with the management plan the Maranello squad’s pit wall put together, as he slid further down the order. Leclerc told media, “First of all, I need to take back the words I’ve said on the radio, because I thought that it was coming from one thing… I got a lot more detail since I got out of the car, and it was actually an issue coming from the chassis, and nothing that we could have done differently.”
