Charles Leclerc couldn’t handle it Carlos Sainz at the Australian GP. The Monegasque surprised in qualifying but in the race he had no choice but to dispute his teammate’s victory in Ferrari. ‘Il Predestinato’, far from looking for any reason, congratulated the man from Madrid for his excellent work and ended up enjoying the double achievement of those from Maranello.
“It feels good especially for the team. We haven’t done the ‘double’ since Bahrain 2022. It’s a great memory we have and it’s incredible to have done it again. Carlos had an incredible weekend after his surgery, he had a great race. For my part, I had a few more problems in the second round. I couldn’t manage the tires well in the first round and the last one was better,” he said as he got out of the SF-24 car.
There was a moment after the first stop when it looked like the pace gave the Monegasque a chance to challenge Carlos for the race, but the Spaniard pushed a bit and within a few laps he had left him by more than eight. a few seconds behind.
“In the first stint I had to stop early to protect myself and Carlos was very fast, while I had problems with my tires. As soon as we got to the first stop, it was clear to me.”
Despite being left winless again, the young Maranello star does not take some credit away from the team but mainly from Sainz, who is in a different league at Albert Park.
“But again, Carlos did a better job from qualifying to the race and without a doubt deserved the victory.in. I am very happy for him and for the team. These are very good points. “We went into the weekend saying we had to maximize the points and we couldn’t do anything better, so I couldn’t be happier,”
