The big loss to the fool F1 Brazilian GP Qualifying It was 2022 charles leclerc. The Monegasque could have fought for pole under normal conditions, but his team failed with a crucial tire choice error at a crucial moment in Q3. This, together with the appearance of rain at the moment when he was preparing to change the tires to mark an hour, condemned him to 10th starting position for this Saturday’s sprint race (8:30 pm Spanish peninsular time / DAZN F1).

The remaining 9 riders took to the track with soft tires to go for a decisive time in the first minutes. Less Leclerc, who put on intermediate rubber. To make matters worse, after his first warm-up lap he did not enter the pits. His team called him when he couldn’t enter. He gave his turn, but with many whiplashes and problems. And finally, when he returned to the pits to begin the intermissions, it was too late. It started raining. “Has everyone completed their dry lap?”asked Charles. “Yes,” they answered. “beautiful”he commented mockingly.

His hope was dashed. This Saturday he has to return from 10th place in the sprint race (8:30 pm/DAZN F1) in search of a better place on the grid on Sunday. Charles was going to attack after taking a big disappointment which he explained when he got out of his car.

“We were expecting rain, which did not come. I will talk to the team and try to understand what we can do better in those conditions. But I am very disappointed.”, Charles pointed out, making it clear that Ferrari expected it to start raining before the drivers had time to set the first time on the soft rubber. But the opposite happened. The water appeared when everyone had set the time on the time table.

“We had a great opportunity. Our car is still good. But now we have to get down to business and do everything right for the rest of the weekend.”added the Monegasque
